Hi,
You need to install kernel-unsupported to get the i2c stuff (in S.L. 
3.0.4 this is installed by default)
After that's installed, for a *quick* way to check and see how well your 
sensors are detected do a
   sensors-detect
and just do the default answers to the questions (just hit return).  In 
the end it should let you know what is supported and will tell you how 
to set it up.  But ... with alot of newer computers, alot of things 
aren't supported right out of the box.
