Hey guys and gals,

Anyone have any experience with getting lm-sensors to run on Sun hardware?

In particular Sunfire x2250 and x4170

I was running 5.3 on these boxes and sensors-detect would not find
anything.  I did a bit of research and as I recall thanks to this list
discovered some bugs that were affecting me, so upgraded to 5.7.  CPU temp
sensors were then detected, but no fan sensors.  At least on the x2250.
The x4170 still detects nothing.

thanks,
-Alan
