Settings can't be changed via gconftool or gconf-editor
Brought to you by:

When I change applet settings with gconf-editor or gconftool, they aren't picked up by the applet. Instead, when I open the applet configuration dialog, the previous settings appear, and I can see in gconf-editor that they have actually reverted to the old values. Specifically, I was trying to toggle the alarm_enables parameter via gconftool and gconf-editor, with no success. This was with sensors-apllet 2.2.1 on a Debian Lenny system; if the issue is already fixed upstream, please disregard this report.

Thanks for reporting this bug, yes you are correct, currently sensors-applet does not monitor the gconf values, it simply uses them as a configuration store. Changing this to a feature request since it is not technically a bug.
