Package: linux-image-4.9.0-7-amd64
Version: 4.9.110-3+deb9u1
Severity: normal


<< Dear Maintainer,

I installed from scratch firmware-9.4.0-amd64-netinst.iso

I installed conky to display the sensors in the desktop.

The modules that load on the desktop are:

coretemp (Temp)
it8772 (Temp, Fan)
nouveau (Temp, In)
dell_smm (Fan, Temp)

With the coretemp, it8772 modules I'm not having any problem, the problem
concerns the modules nouveau and dell_smm because they are loaded randomly
in the paths:

/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon4
/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon3

Given that on conky I use the following code:

nouveau: $ {offset 2} Temp1: $ {hwmon 4 temp 1} ° C $ {offset 10} Core GPU:
$ {hwmon 4 in 0} V dell_smm: $ {offset 2} Fan Processor: $ {hwmon 3 fan 1}
RPM $ {offset 10} Motherboard Fan: $ {hwmon 3 fan 2} RPM $ {offset 10}
Other: $ {hwmon 3 temp 2} ° C

I have to make debian load the modules in persistent paths, otherwise the
following errors are generated:

conky: desktop window (c00003) is subwindow of root window (4dd)
conky: window type - override
conky: drawing to created window (0x3200001)
conky: drawing to double buffer
