No need to try to load/detect a module twice...
Thanks! I'll keep embarrassing myself with gaps in knowledge
Especially embarrassing because the next sentence in the news was:
The sensor detection program for writing out the module configuration file isn't tapping the graphics cards any longer since the main open-source drivers (Radeon, Intel, Nouveau) are already handling the loading of their GPU thermal drivers themselves.
I feel kinda embarrassed not knowing there were computers with humidity sensors in them, unless that's a new thing that hasn't been implemented often. While i understand the reasoning for ditching GPU i2c probing, I feel like it could've still been an option, but I'm not sure how much effort it takes to maintain that part of the code so maybe it really isn't worth the effort.
First I've heard as well - maybe people using their laptops in the shower is the new trend.
I am still wondering about those free-fall sensors in laptops Maybe at a certain acceleration like 8.2m/s*s, it turns off some hardware or blows up an airbag or something...

I thought that was for doing something to the disk heads in laptop hard drives to stop them damaging the platter if dropped - or I have been suckered by marketing bollocks again?
