I'm no engineer on these things, but my understanding is that it must first be recognized by the BIOS. This can be determined by looking at "dmesg". If you have "hwinfo" installed, read the manpage for it (it's simple) and run it to make sure that the sensor is seen there.
Then it's a matter of configuring the module(s) to connect to the hardware. This is always a matter of experimentation for me. Web searches sometimes help.

They are recognized by the BIOS, in the BIOS-setup there is a screen : hardware monitoring. That displays three different tempratures and the speed of three fans. Also a number of voltages are monitored. Are dmesg or hwinfo capable of handling I2C devices ? The whole purpose of "lm-sensors" is to provide drivers for applications. sensors-detect tries to detect what drivers (kernel-modules) are needed. Then you have to make those drivers available at boot and start the "sensors" application. Well, the drivers are available (lsmod shows them) but the "sensors" application complains about "no sensors". -- Has there been any resolution to this. Had been following this thread until it's abrupt stop. Have the exact same problem but the mo-bo is a MSI K8T (939AMD)
