Jean Delvare 1ba9c1837d Delete the matorb support script. The matorb driver was never ported to
Linux 2.6, and has nothing to do with sensors anyway.

This is a list of additional programs, that may or may not be installed by
`make install', and that can be found in the `prog' directory of
this package.
These programs are generally small utilities used for debugging,
and installation of the lm_sensors package, and for demonstrating
the use of the drivers and libraries in this package.
For more elaborate programs (for example, GUI sensor displays),
see useful_addresses.html.
* prog/config/grab_busses.sh (written in bash and awk, not installed)
This program helps you generate the `bus' statements for your configuration
file. It read /proc/bus/i2c (or the file specified on the command-line),
and prints to stdout `bus' statements reflecting the currently detected
adapters.
* prog/daemon/healthd.sh (written in bash, not installed)
An example of a very simple hardware health monitoring daemon.
* prog/detect/sensors-detect (written in Perl, installed by 'make install')
This program tries to detect the available SMBus adapters and the chips
connected to them, as well as Super-I/O and misc chips. It also generates
modprobe lines and module options. This program is interactive.
* prog/dump/isadump (written in C, installed by 'make install')
This program dumps the registers of ISA or Super-I/O chips.
Usual syntax:
isadump 0x295 0x296
isadump -k 0x55 0x2e 0x2f
* prog/hotplug/unhide_ICH_SMBus (shell script, not installed)
It unhides the ICH Intel SMBus for 2.6 kernels
* prog/init/lm_sensors.init (shell script, not installed)
A SysV init script to be installed in /etc/rc.d/init.d/
It inserts the bus and chip modules.
* prog/init/sensord.init (shell script, not installed)
A SysV init script to be installed in /etc/rc.d/init.d/
It inserts the bus and chip modules and starts the sensord daemon.
* prog/maxilife/sysinfo.sh (written in shell, not installed)
Write system information to the HP Maxilife LCD display using writelcd.sh.
* prog/maxilife/writelcd.sh (written in shell, not installed)
Write a string to the HP Maxilife LCD display.
* prog/mkdev/mkdev.sh (written in bash, not installed)
This script creates the /dev/i2c-* files. Please check the source before
you run it, as you may need to set some variables first.
* prog/pwm/pwmconfig (shell script, installed by 'make install')
Formerly pwmtest, tests the pwm (pulse width modulation) outputs of sensors
for their effect on the fans and helps to setup the configfile for fancontrol.
* prog/pwm/fancontrol (shell script, installed by 'make install')
Controls fanspeeds responding to changes on temperature sensors.
Configuration through pwmconfig.
* prog/pwm/fancontrol.pl (perl script, installed by 'make install')
Reimplementation of fancontrol in perl, with self-daemonizing.
* prog/rrd/sens_update_rrd (written in bash, not installed)
This script gathers sensors data and adds it to a round robin database
(RRD). RRD is then used to display the graphed data in web pages.
See prog/rrd/README for more information.
* prog/sensord/sensord (written in C, installed by `make install-prog-sensord')
This daemon can be used to periodically log sensor readings from
the sensors hardware to syslog, and to alert (using syslog level ALERT)
when a sensor alarm is signalled; for example, if a fan fails, a temperature
limit is exceeded, etc.
* prog/sensors/sensors (written in C, installed by `make install')
This pretty-prints the information provided by the modules. It is a normal
console application, using stdout. It is essential, because
unlike the raw /proc/sys/dev/sensors/*/* files, it takes your configuration
file into account.
* prog/tellerstats/gather.sh, tellerstats.sh (written in bash, not installed)
These scripts gather sensors data and graph the data for web pages.
See prog/tellerstats/README for more information.
