[bug?] Some Hardware Treats `/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp` Differently

[kn0wmad]

E2 prototype shows extreme cold temps on this sensor. This could also be a problem with this particular hardware/firmware.

Perhaps there is a better way to handle temp sensors? There are other sensors available on this device that show what are probably accurate temps (obviously in different locations).

Relevant eOS code:

Some DIY folks are getting errors in relation to this, obviously their hardware is producing chip temp data elsewhere

ERROR embassy::system: Could not get initial temperature: Filesystem I/O Error: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp: No such file or directory (os error 2)

Possibly related on DIY build...

v0.3.4.1 – Reported temperature worked just fine, with ranges of 80ºc to 100ºc under heavy load. v0.3.4.2 – Temperature wildly misreported with values of 1990ºc to 2200ºc under heavy load.

using LMsensors now, should resolve.
