    Well, thats the problem! sensors-detect DID find something, and I loaded the proposed modules. Please take a look: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=177493

    Code:
     Sorry, no chips were detected.
     Either your sensors are not supported, or they are
     connected to an I2C bus adapter that we do not support.
     See doc/FAQ, doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html, or
     http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/cvs/lm_sensors2/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html
     (FAQ #4.24.3) for further information.
     If you find out what chips are on your board, see
     http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/newdrivers.html for driver status.
    also I attatched some of the errors I got before
    i get this too not using sudo first.. my mobo's spec asus goldfish mobo
    with sudo i get
    Driver `eeprom' (should be inserted):
    Detects correctly:
    * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at 0400' (Algorithm unavailable)
    Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x50
    Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 8)
    * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at 0400' (Algorithm unavailable)
    Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x52
    Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 8)
    will this get me to like.. tell temp and stuff?

    must've have something the same as Rule.. if something went wrong, it's not my fault.. though because i did it exactally.. except i got now..

    Code:
    simple@elemental:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/module-init-tools
     * Calculating module dependencies...                                    [ ok ]
     * Loading modules...
    To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
    /etc/modprobe.d/local and run update-modules:

    #----cut here----
    # I2C module options
    alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
    #----cut here----
    #************************************************* *******************************

    was i supposed to see that? i never saw anything like that.

    i guess if you could take a quick look at the attachment, my chip isn't compatible ?

    Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors

    i have hp pavilion ze4900
    and thats what i get
    root@vega:/home/abdulsalam # sudo sensors-detect

    This program will help you determine which I2C/SMBus modules you need to
    load to use lm_sensors most effectively. You need to have i2c and
    lm_sensors installed before running this program.
    Also, you need to be `root', or at least have access to the /dev/i2c-*
    files, for most things.
    If you have patched your kernel and have some drivers built in, you can
    safely answer NO if asked to load some modules. In this case, things may
    seem a bit confusing, but they will still work.

    It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all
    questions, unless you know what you're doing.

    IF THIS IS AN IBM THINKPAD, PRESS CTRL-C NOW!
    IBM Thinkpads have a severely broken i2c/SMBus implementation, just scanning
    the bus will break your Thinkpad forever!
    If this is a non-Thinkpad IBM, we still suggest you press CTRL+C. We have
    had users reporting system breakage on other IBM systems as well.

    We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
    You do not need any special privileges for this.
    Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): no

    As you skipped adapter detection, we will only scan already loaded
    adapter modules.
    If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them
    scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script.

    To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded.
    If it is built-in into your kernel, you can safely skip this.
    i2c-dev is already loaded.

    We are now going to do the adapter probings. Some adapters may hang halfway
    through; we can't really help that. Also, some chips will be double detected;
    we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case.
    If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address, you can
    specify that address to remain unprobed. That often
    includes address 0x69 (clock chip).

    Next adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 1880
    Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): yes
    Client found at address 0x30
    Client at address 0x50 can not be probed - unload all client drivers first!
    Client at address 0x51 can not be probed - unload all client drivers first!
    Client found at address 0x69

    Some chips are also accessible through the ISA bus. ISA probes are
    typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
    this. This is usually safe though.

    Do you want to scan the ISA bus? (YES/no): no

    Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. Super I/O probes are
    typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
    this. This is usually safe though.

    Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): no

    Sorry, no chips were detected.
    Either your sensors are not supported, or they are
    connected to an I2C bus adapter that we do not support.

    Perhaps someone can help me here. I've gone through the steps here, but my actual cpu temp is not displayed

    How to enable "temp3" sensor?
    The world is a mess and I just need to rule it.

    Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors

    First off, this was awesome. I first looked at it and said "What? Scripts and stuff? Forget this..." and went off to do something else. I came back to it and actually READ through it and said "Oh this is nothing!" and it worked correctly for me the FIRST TIME. Excellent instructions.

    Second off: Like some others here, I'm using an NForce 2 motherboard (Epox 8rDA+ or something). Does anyone know what the temp sensors map to? T1 is low (I'm guessing ambient temperature), t2 is high (cpu probably) and t3 is about 10 degrees (F) lower than t2 so I'm guessing it's either another chip or the mobo temp? Not sure. I can crack the case open and check the fan settings, but I'm not sure about the temperature sensors. Any ideas?

    Thanks again for a simple and well-written guide.

    are the the sensors that gdesklets use ?

    all worked fine here , great how-to !

    Is there also a sensor for the cpu-load ?
