It didn't help. The problem seems to be that the directory /proc/bus doesn't contain any i2c files (or subdirectories), and I don't know how to get them to appear there. Paul
You 'll have to put i2c in your kernel for that. (It's under character devices)

Have you ran sensors-detect before?

I've upgraded my kernel to include i2c support (a necessary step, I discovered) and ran sensors-detect successfully. I then added the suggested lines to modules.conf. But when I try to run "sensors", I get the message, also reported by someone else: Can't access /proc file I was running as root, and lsmod shows that i2c-dev is loaded but unused. Paul
I just read in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/i2c/proc-interface: Whenever i2c-core is loaded, you will find a file /proc/bus/i2c, which lists all currently registered I2C adapters. Each line contains exactly one I2C adapter. Each line has the following format: "i2c-%d\t%9s\t%-32s't%-32s\n", which works out to four columns separated by tabs. Note that the file will be empty, if no adapters are registered at all. Do you have this file /proc/bus/i2c ? I don't know if this helps but maybe the rest of the documentation does?

I've got the file and it's empty. Now I need to find out what adapters I need to register and how to register them. Paul
