gkrellm rocks....perhaps one app I can go on talking abt like I did
for enlightenment...occupies one full column of my desktop with
everything from an alsa frequency spectrum to monitoring cpu
usage...sensors support is excellent - works with ACPI, lm_sensors,
hddtemp (may be others too..)...make sure you run sensors_detect
(comes with lm_sensors) as root - quite comprehensive and interactive
- if you have fedora, it will generate the config file as well...you
will just have to ensure that the lm_sensors service is running (check
with system-config-services or peek into /etc/rc?.d/)
it moves on...
PS: Sorry if this mail comes up in double...I got a mail delivery
failure notification in the first attempt...

For 2.6 kernels, make sure you have mounted sysfs!
For older kernels, make sure you have done 'modprobe i2c-proc'!
