I just noticed a problem (either with this patch or some other issue
with the driver on this board): The readings don't seem to be
updating, I get the same values all the time. (Just now I started
compiling a kernel and coretemp reports temperatures in the 60 degree
plus range but atk0110-acpi still reports 35 degrees as it did
before..)
