Hello
I've went thru archives on getting gkrellm displayin cpu temp.,
Fan speed

...

I've used " sensors-detect" to get lm-sensors running, but it
doesn't seem to be enough to get gkrellm sensors works

do you reboot after sensors-detect?

yes I did
here is the sensors-detect summary output :
######################################################################
### Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:

Driver `to-be-written' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa')
Chip `Winbond W83627EHF Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9)


I will now generate the commands needed to load the I2C modules.
Sometimes, a chip is available both through the ISA bus and an I2C
bus. ISA bus access is faster, but you need to load an additional
driver module for it. If you have the choice, do you want to use the
ISA bus or the I2C/SMBus (ISA/smbus)? ISA

To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
/etc/modprobe.conf:

#----cut here----
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
#----cut here----
--------------------------------------------------> " Those I've added
in /etc/modprobe.conf "

To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:

#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
# no driver for Winbond W83627EHF Super IO Sensors yet
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/bin/sensors -s # recommended
#----cut here----
--------------> " I don't know where to put those above lines which
/etc/rc* ?"

Near the bottom of /etc/rc.d/rc.local

WARNING! If you have some things built into your kernel, the list
above will contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones! You
really should try these commands right now to make sure everything is
working properly. Monitoring programs won't work until it's done.

Do you want to generate /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (YES/no): YES
Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/rc.d/init.d/lm_sensors
for initialization at boot time.
