README for lm_sensors
IMPORTANT NOTES
* The format of /usr/etc/sensors3.conf changed with lm-sensors 3.0.0.
If you have a custom configuration file using the old format, you
can convert it using the sensors-conf-convert script. Otherwise just
overwrite your old configuration file with the new default one.
KERNEL CONFIGURATION
* Enable "I2C support" (CONFIG_I2C=y or m). On many motherboards, the sensor
chip is connected to the SMBus, which is supported by I2C in the Linux kernel
* Enable "I2C device interface" (CONFIG_I2C_CHARDEV=m). sensors-detect needs
this to probe for SMBus hardware monitoring chips.
* In I2C Hardware Bus support, enable all drivers you might need, preferably
as modules. If you're not sure, select them all.
* Enable "Hardware Monitoring support" (CONFIG_HWMON=y or m).
* Enable all hardware monitoring drivers you might need, preferably as modules
