This is not usually needed, see below. However, if you wish they can be put in at the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local. > > WARNING!

Try lsmod to see if the modules listed above are loaded, and also verify that lm_sensors is running. Note: The modules must be loaded before sensors can use them. If you A. are not running lm_sensors or B. have not put the lines in /etc/rc.d/rc.local or C. have not manually run the listed commands to load the modules then sensors will not have anything to communicate with/report from.
