I'm beginning to suspect you're workin from a tarball. don't,
and don't use those docs. No kernel recompile is neccessary.
Mandrake kernels have had the i2c modules for a long time. Install
the lm_sensors rpm, use urpmi as I don't remember if the
liblm_sensors rpm is needed or not. Then it should be as simple as
o run 'sensors-detect' and hit <Enter> for each question it asks
o cut'n paste the lines it generates into the appropriate
modules.conf or rc.local file (detect tells you what goes where).
Add i2c-proc to /etc/modules (not modules.conf)
o Easiest thing is to reboot, tho it can be done without rebooting.
o Type 'sensors' in a term, and you should see sensor output.
