I did the following to get it to work (someone else told me this): apt-get install lm-sensors apt-get install lm-sensors-source cd /usr/src/modules/lm-sensors make make install depmod -a [add /usr/local/lib to ld.so.conf and run ldconfig] prog/mkdev/mkdev.sh sensors-detect [add lines to /etc/modutils/local <the program tells you what>] sensors -s sensors -s gives me some output, displaying what I have, so that fixes the last part of your problem. I just did this last night, so I haven't played with it much. =) Good luck, Eric /********************************************************* *Eric Sandall ICQ: 667348 *email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://jet.homeip.net *********************************************************/ /* Everything after this line has been added by $hitos... */
