Problem removing lm_sensors

Hello, i installed lm_sensors with pacman and do the guide configuration of the arch wiki that generate the k10temp module, but after read about the hardware issues with this package, i decided to remove it but i can't do it because it breaks dependency required by mesa. I tried removing it with the unrecommended way ( pacman -Rdd ) and it breaks the system after reboot. Is there are any safe way of remove it ?

breaks the system after reboot.

How does it break the system after reboot? Just curious - the uninstall might not be the cause of the breakdown.

Re: Problem removing lm_sensors

Welcome to the boards,

Please post actual outputs instead of paraphrasing the next time, you don't want to remove lm_sensors you just need to remove/disable the config it created to autoload the relevant hardware modules. So remove  /etc/conf.d/lm_sensors and

systemctl disable lm_sensors

that will return everything to the previous state. Maybe also blacklist k10temp to be extra sure.

@d_fajardo
I can entirely believe that. lm_sensors provides a shared library that all dependants of it can potentially fail on if they do not find it. But "system broke" is more likely to be "graphical session broke" and a multi-user.target still being usable.

Re-installing lm_sensors package fix the issue but k10temp it still loading after boot.

Welcome to the boards,

Please post actual outputs instead of paraphrasing the next time, you don't want to remove lm_sensors you just need to remove/disable the config it created to autoload the relevant hardware modules. So remove  /etc/conf.d/lm_sensors and

systemctl disable lm_sensors

that will return everything to the previous state. Maybe also blacklist k10temp to be extra sure.

Ok , i will keep it in mind for the next post . There wasn't a config file of lm_sensors in /etc/conf.d/ but blacklisting k10temp definitely prevents the module from loading.

Thanks for replying
