First, I must admit that I am extremely inexperienced when it comes to the process of building RPMs. I consider myself quite adept with RedHat administration, so I didn't think it would be that hard to learn how to build RPMs. I was wrong. If anyone knows of a good place to get solid background information that will help with this learning process, please let me know. On to the problem at hand. I'm trying to build my own RPM of lm_sensors-2.8.2 so that I can begin to take advantage of the newly included asb100 support for my ASUS boards. I've tried to use the SPEC file that is included with the lm_sensors source. Despite my attempt to modify everything for a current RedHat 9 machine, it did not work. I then tried to start from the SPEC file that was included with lm_sensors-2.8.1-1.src.rpm. This crashes when attempting to apply the RedHat patch. I've tried countless variations and nothing seems to work. I'll gladly forward the spec file to anyone that might desire to review it. Thanks for your help, Brian bhanks@xxxxxxxxxx
