lm_sensors on RHEL5 not working!



Hi,

In attempting to configure lm_sensors support under RHEL5, I can not
determine what sensors modules are available. I'm running on an HP 6715b and
can see thermal info reported under the /proc tree. But can't find any
sensor kernel module to load.
Underl RHEL4 I could modprobe i2c-dev and the i2c_sensor.ko module would be
loaded. No luck under RHEL5.

I've run sensors-detect several times and it always says it can't detect any
sensors. I've loaded the i2c_dev module and the lm85 module, but same
result.
The lm_sensors service can not be started.
When I run the sensors command by itself, it always gives a "General parse
error", using the stock /etc/sensors.conf file.

Any idea where I should look?
