LM_SENSORS QUICK INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
------------------------------------------
NOTE: PLEASE SKIM THE INSTALL DOCUMENT, OR BETTER YET READ IT CAREFULLY!
The instructions in this document will generally work if you have a standard
system, but not always!!
The first part of document is for 2.6 kernel series, second part is for
older 2.4 kernels.
Quickstart for Kernel 2.6
-------------------------
0) Just compile and install lm-sensors userspace tools. You can do that with:
'make user; make user_install'
1) Make sure your kernel has support for all I2C bus drivers and
'i2c device interface'. If you are using a distribution kernel, all is
already prepared, you don't need to recompile it.
2) Run 'sensors-detect' command, it will tell you what modules you need to load.
3) Load them and run 'sensors' command, you should see some results.
4) Find right section in /etc/sensors.conf, fix labels, limits, fan divisors
5) Run 'sensors -s' to apply the changes.
You may also try our installation wizard at:
http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/iwizard/1
We are aware that the documentation could be improved, please contact us if
you want to help us with that.
Quickstart for Kernel 2.4
-------------------------
NOTE: PLEASE SKIM THE INSTALL DOCUMENT, OR BETTER YET READ IT CAREFULLY!
Quickstart for i2c option 1 (modules) and lm_sensors option 1 (modules).
This is by far the EASIEST METHOD.
Other methods are described in INSTALL.
------------------------------------------
* Verify you are running a 2.4 kernel, 2.4.10 or later.
If you are running a 2.5/2.6 kernel, the ONLY thing you need to
do is 'make user' and 'make user_install'. Do NOT follow the rest
of these instructions.
* Make sure you have the kernel tree corresponding to your current
kernel in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build.
