    Thanks Chris. Running "make install" solved the problem. (I now have
    motivation to read some "make" documentation and tutorials).

    Sadly, it looks like I won't be able to get sensors data.

It's not yet time to give up hope.  See below.

    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=497670

    Description of problem:
    it87 module loading fails, prevents sensors from being available on
    my machine.

    Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
    kernel-2.6.29.1-102.fc11.x86_64

    How reproducible:
    Every time

Read further down in the bug report. In a later posting, Martin Ebourne [Comment 3, at 2009-06-14 16:40:46 EDT] reports that he was able to get this working by adding the option "acpi_enforce_resources=lax" in GRUB to the command line passed to the kernel.
