sensors.conf has been there all along. It's a cross between a
readme and a conf file. You can use it to adjust sensors ouput.
IOW's values aren't reported directly from the i2c bus in their final
form. It takes an algorithym to fudge them into shape. Take a close
look at the file and you'll see what I mean. Keep in mind tho that
algorithyms for all possible sensors are in there, so if you edit, make
sure you've got the right modules for your system. You can also change
stuff like alarm limits and labels in sensors.conf too. I use to, I
don't bother with it anymore.
