im trying to get information on the speed of my system fan, case temp, etc. ive installed lm sensors but this only gives me the temperature of the cpu nothing else the driver im using the i2c-i801for intel 82801EB(ICH5).
How do i go about getting the fan speeds, etc. do i have to write a kernel module to access this information or can i access it directly? and if so how would i go about it.

you may want to look at the lm-sensors package
