Great that ruik & you finally got the damn thing to work. However, you better
contact the FC folks. The script we distribute with lm_sensors creates 32
device files, which should be more than enough for everyone. So if the FC 2
only creates 2, you should tell them it isn't sufficent. They should create at
least 8.

Note that most distros out there now use devfs or udev, so you are not
supposed to create the device files manually. This may be why the problem went
unnoticed so far.
