Hi! I installed lm_sensors on my slack 13.1 box, and it seems to work fine. The file /etc/sensors3.conf is populated with tons of strange data (at least for me) and I know that lm_sensors is the "geekiest" of the geekiest" so I need help in configuring the settings so I get accurate and reliable values, and also I get rid of the alarms I currently have.
The output of sensors is:

the content of the sensors3.conf file:
Code:
# libsensors configuration file
# -----------------------------
#
# This default configuration file only includes statements which do not
# differ from one mainboard to the next. Only label, compute and set
# statements for internal voltage and temperature sensors are included.
#
# In general, local changes should not be added to this file, but rather
# placed in custom configuration files located in /etc/sensors.d. This
# approach makes further updates much easier.
#
# Such custom configuration files for specific mainboards can be found at
# http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Configurations
