That would be equally unhelpful. What would be helpful would be to add
the kernel module back to the kernel packages. Leann should not have
removed it. This is not a bug in any code. This bug is in Ubuntu
packaging.

Title:
  Hardware sensors not working on Toshiba Satellite M40x (need omnibook
  module)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hardware sensors (tempurature) is not working for my Toshiba Satellite
  M40x laptop with my fresh Ubuntu Feisty install.

  I got it working with Gentoo using the omnibook kernel module found at:
  http://omnibook.sourceforge.net/doku.php

  It works with Toshiba laptops with the pheonix bios.

  I followed the instruction in the forum to get it to work for my laptop with feisty here:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=316358&highlight=omnibook

  So aside from hopefully getting this software added to the Ubuntu
  repository, what information about my laptop do you need so that it
  also gets autoloaded?

  Thanks
