Trying to use lm_sensors...

I d/l the rpm from rpmfind.net, and installed it. I tried running sensors-detect, and it says it cant execute the command. Am I doing something wrong?

you need to install the newest version of 12c. If i were u, i would install lm sensors from the source along with i2c, its pretty easy. http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/download.html has the i2c download and the lm_sendors source

sensors-detect
bash: sensors-detect: command not found
thats what i keep getting back, even after i installed the i2c stuff. What am I donig wrong? I seem to be having problems on numerous fronts

Ok, i went back and reinstalled the i2c and lm_sensors, and i still get the same output as above in the prompt

It looks like the sensors-detect script is on a path not contained on your PATH variable,

so try doing this

whereis sensors-detect

that will tell you where the script is, and ther execute it with the whole path, if it found it on /usr/sbin tehn it would be:

/usr/sbin/sensors-detect

I actually tried that, but all i get from the prompt is
sensors-detect:
No path, file, directory etc. Im going to try compiling with i2c enabled in the kernel this time
