I want to display the battery temp using DCE with this script;

echo `cat /sys/class/power_supply/bq27200-0/temp` °C
but in order for that to work I have to be root in xTerm and load these modules

modprobe bq27x00_battery
I am not a huge Linux guy, and last time I tried to write a start up script I almost bricked my device, But how can I execute "modprobe bq27x00_battery" as root at start up? Or include it in the DCE widget?

Thanks.

If I remember rightly you can only get the temp display if you're running a different kernel, i.e an titan's overclocked version.

If you are, then go to X-terminal and type in:
Code:
sudo gainroot
followed by:
Code:
echo bq27x00_battery >> /etc/modules
and the module should be loaded every time you turn on the phone.
