Bug Description
Installed 0.2-1 from PPA, after reboot it doesn't show anything on the panel if the discrete GPU is disabled.
I'm using a multiGPU laptop with an intel i7 sandy bridge + ATI 6770 and catalyst 12.04, hopefully the HP DV6-6xxx laptop I'm using has a bios switch to set fixed mode GPU switching and I can successfully change GPU just restarting X.
When launching indicator sensors from the command line I'm seeing it hangs while searching ATI sensors and takes 100% of one CPU core indefinitely, while there's no problem if the discrete GPU is enabled, I can't use it most of the time as usually working with the integrated GPU is enough.
aticonfig --list-adapters
* 0. 01:00.0 AMD Radeon HD 6700M Series
* - Default adapter
and
aticonfig --px-list-
PowerXpress: Integrated GPU is active (Power-Saving mode).
could be usefull to check if indicator-sensors is executing on a multiGPU setup and if the discrete GPU is active.
Please have a check at it, a 40°C summer is here! :)

Are you sure it has hung, it could be that it just hasn't detected any
valid ati gpu.
