Public bug reported:
Laptop Dell Inspiron 5520.
Under Gnome Ubuntu 14.04 the fan was properly detected and monitored.
Now in Gnome Ubuntu 16.04 (fresh install) the fan sensor is not longer
detected. I tried installing lm-sensors, then ran sensors-detect.
When finished, the detection script only detected the laptop CPU thermal
sensors.
I experienced the same issue, upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04.
I also get this log (about 12-14 entries per min. aprox.)
