== Configuring Hardware - Hardware Sensors ==

Chances are your hardware contains a number of sensors for monitoring temperature, power, fan speed and more. The package that installs the tools is called ''lm_sensors''. Make sure you have the '''lm_sensors''' USE flag set in your ''/etc/make.conf''. You will also want to set the package-specific USE flag '''sensord''' in your ''/etc/portage/package.use''.
'''$''' sudo emerge -av lm_sensors

 To enable the sensors logging daemon, you'll need to configure and restart syslog-ng.

 Restart the logging utility in order to have the changes take effect.

 Next we will run a utility that probes the system and detects the sensors. If any hardware monitoring chips are detected on your system, the program will list the kernel modules needed to interface with them.
