Before mandrake released the version of lm_sensors for my board, Asus A7N8X, I tried to compile it for use with Mandrake's kernels. I had no luck at all. One needs to both compile i2c and lm_sensors along with the kernel sources to get it right. Its really time to read the instructions, something I was having a hard time doing before the rpm came out. I personally think lm_sensors is about the hardest program I have ever tried to get to work thanks due to the rpm, I don't have to suffer anymore. I believe that it is also possible to go back to the 2.8.4 that you just had lousy readings from, and adjust the sensors so they read correctly. BTW, I believe that the path /mkdev/mkdev.sh is meant to be within the source code folder, so that a program that usually runs during make or make-install is run. -- Linux Desktop user since 2000, Home networker since shortly after.
