    Summary: Hardware Health Monitoring Tools
    Description: 
    This package contains a collection of user space tools for general SMBus
    access and hardware monitoring.  SMBus, also known as System Management Bus,
    is a protocol for communicating through a I2C ('I squared C') bus.  Many modern
    mainboards have a System Management Bus.  There are a lot of devices which can
    be connected to a SMBus; the most notable are modern memory chips with EEPROM
    memories and chips for hardware monitoring.
    
    Most modern mainboards incorporate some form of hardware monitoring chips.
    These chips read things like chip temperatures, fan rotation speeds and
    voltage levels.  There are quite a few different chips which can be used
    by mainboard builders for approximately the same results.

    April 16, 2007 Sergey Vlasov 2.10.2-alt2
    - Removed unneeded files from /usr/share/lm_sensors (fixes wrong package
      dependencies).
    Jan. 24, 2007 Sergey Vlasov 2.10.2-alt1
    - 2.10.2 release.
    - sensors-detect: Added module-init-tools support (if /etc/modprobe.d exists,
      module options are written into /etc/modprobe.d/lm_sensors instead of
      /etc/modutils.d/lm_sensors).
    - Fixed lm_sensors service installation (manual "chkconfig --add lm_sensors"
      is no longer needed).
    - /etc/init.d/lm_sensors:
        + fixed broken restart and condrestart handling;
        + fixed errors on stop when modules which are not available for the
          current kernel are listed in /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors.
    Nov. 10, 2006 Sergey Vlasov 2.10.1-alt1
    - 2.10.1 release.
    - Updated source URL.
    - Dropped alt-tmp patch (fixed upstream).
    - Updated modules_conf_sensor-generation and alt-init patches.
    - Removed kernel-source-lm_sensors subpackage (was needed only for 2.4.x
      kernels, which are no longer supported)
