[lm-sensors] Question about correct sensor

[r.marek@sh.cvut.cz (Rudolf Marek)]

Hello Christoph,

Yes we can, although this is RTFM question.

-1) RTFM
0) get the lm-sensors package from your distribution or from our web site
1) install it
2) if you compiled your own kernel make sure you have i2c-i801 driver ready
3) run sensors-detect as root
4) this script should tell you what chips you have
5) if you have your own kernel compile missing drivers
6) modprobe the drivers that sensors-detect suggest
7) run the sensors command
8) adjust /etc/sensors.conf to your needs

If you no sensors are detected please send us output of sensors detect.

lol

Please can you remove such message in your future mails? I know that this might
be a company policy but it may annoy people round here, so better to avoid such
disclaimers or large footers.

In my job we solved it with special developer mailing list footer :)
