Re: [Freeipmi-devel] Supermicro X8DTL-3F CPU1 Temp, CPU2 Temp, PS Status sensors query issues

[Albert Chu]

Hey Werner,

I got a beta release up with a new option to ipmi-sensors called
--ignore-unrecognized-events.  Appears to work for me in a test case,
can you LMK if it works for you.

Thanks,

Al
