I take it you mean the lm_utils package? If so, now run
'sensors-detect'. All default answers to the questions should work,
and the program will generate a few lines to add to rc.local and
modules.conf. I have a kt133a on a Soyo k7vta pro and the lines are:
~~~~~
To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:
#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-viapro
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe lm80
modprobe via686a
#----cut here----
To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
either /etc/modules.conf or /etc/conf.modules:
#----cut here----
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
#----cut here----

do a 'locate -i i2c-viapro' and it should return something like this:
/lib/modules/2.4.12-5mdk/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-viapro.o.gz
When you're done with the above, then typing 'sensors' should
output all your system voltages, temps and fan speeds. A good app
for displaying continuously all or some of these values is Gkrellm.
