Hm, I guess you have been using compilation option 3, where you do
generate a patch and apply it to your kernel sources. This method is
known to have problems (this is temporary, we know how to fix it and it
should be done really soon.)

You should use comilation option 1, that is: completely separated from
the kernel tree. This is by far the easier one, as easy as typing "make
&& make install" for i2c and "make && make install && ldconfig" for
lm_sensors2. Then, you just have to run "sensors-detect" and see what
kind of sensors exist on your system.
