Also, if you are new to lm_sensors, beware that sensors-detect only
works on a subset of the supported sensor chipsets. On my computer,
for example, it detected the wrong chipsets which "sort of" worked
(gave wrong/incomplete readings). I had to manually tell it which
sensor chipset my motherboard uses.
Okay. I got i2c_i801.ko and coretemp.ko created and loaded in the
kernel. The CONFIG_ACPI_SBS=m parameter creates two modules: sbs.ko and
sbshc.ko; modprobe sbs loades both; hence no smartbatt. The relevant
section from sensors-detect output is
Next adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 18a0 (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): YES
Client found at address 0x0b
Probing for `Smart Battery'... Success!
(confidence 5, driver `smartbatt')
Client found at address 0x19

Probing for `Maxim MAX1617'... No

and it calls for smartbatt. Instead I loaded sbs.ko. The current output
of sensors is
-> sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0: +56°C (high = +100°C)
Should the output show also info on the battery? Am I still missing
something configuring ls_sensors?
Thanks,
