You most probably can't. It is very common that laptop do not have a full-featured hardware monitoring chip, so there's nothing lm-sensors can do. ACPI is taking care of all the thermal management instead. If you think your fan misbehave, first thing to try is a BIOS upgrade if available. If it doesn't help, you would report to the ACPI folks. -- Jean Delvare
