General Information
---------------------

This is a lmsensors frontend, you must install lmsensors
drivers before using it (http://www.netroedge.com/~lm78/):

In Mandrake 8.1 try:
urpmi lm_utils lm_utils-devel

Then run the script:
sensors-detect
it will show the lm-sensors modules you must install for your motherboard.

This software is only tested in my motherboard (PII866 Asus CUBX-L).
I don't know if works well with others motherboards, try it.


New Harddisk temperature monitoring support
------------------------------------------

Now KSensors can show harddisk temperatures (only in modern harddisks).
You must install HDDtemp program from Emmanuel Varagnat.
HDDTemp must be in PATH to allow KSensors use it.
You can download HDDTemp from http://coredump.free.fr.
SUID bit of hddtemp file must by set, type:
chmod +s hddtemp

WARNING: Setting suid bit can be a security flaw.
