You ought to report that to the smartmontools people,
It is 13.1... no point. :-(
They don't care which openSUSE you're running.
Ok, but it may have been corrected in a newer release which I can't try,
s/can't/wont/. You could try it, just compile it yourself. It's not a big deal, Carlos.
and if they add that chipset I will not see it because 13.1 gets no updates.
Don't be so stubborn. Join the community and report it - future users might benefit from it even if you refuse to.
Please think. I have version 6.2, and their current version is 6.5. The first thing they will surely tell me is to upgrade. Well, it is not available for 13.1, so I would have to build it myself. I have seen that there is version 6.4 available in repo "hardware", so I will try that one just now.
