Once lm_sensors is installed, this is one of the few progs that I have run
accross where the only way I can get it to pick up the sensors in gkrellm
is to reboot. However try just logging in again, i.e. just do a login as
new user. and restart KDE or Gnome. If that doesn't get it then reboot. Do
the F1 thing and u should see sensors on the list of things to check. HTH

I have installed lm_sensors and didlm_sensors_detect and copy corresponding lines to filse and mentioned and asked to ceate a config file. Still I get error as
Nov 13 11:05:33 localhost sensord: Error -4 loading sensors configuration file: /etc/sensors.conf
Nov 13 11:05:33 localhost sensors: sensord startup failed
I saw file /etc/sensors.conf exists and uncommented lines are there.

I'm not sure , but there's a couple of commands to run first before sensors,

modprobe i2c-proc
/etc/rc.d/rc.local

maybe these make a difference
