I have an MSI motherboard (K9N6PGM-V2) and AMD cpu Athlon II X4 620 (4

in Ubuntu (Karmic, v 9.10) and I downloaded the driver:
lm_sensors-3.1.2.tar.bz2 and following the instructions, tried make all,
but the terminal returned error messages.
I read at the wiki about AMD
Family 10h CPU, family 11h CPU
and drive k10temp which is in kernel 2.6.33.
My OS: Karmic:~$ uname -r = 2.6.31-19-generic
so will k10 and LM work if I compile a .33 kernel, or will it be OK if I
compile the K10 into the .31 kernel?
I'm not a programmer, but I can do some compiling tasks, as I'm not
unfamiliar with ./ and such. I just need to know what order to issue the
commands in and which ones need 'sudo' in front of them.
Can someone please point me to a tutorial or how-to and help me compile
this into my OS?
First of all lm_sensors-3.1.2.tar.bz2 is not a driver, it's a user space
package for querying and showing data from Linux kernel. Secondly, on
Ubuntu you don't have to download compile and install lm-sensors
package, 'cause it's already there:
Run any console application (like gnome terminal and konsole), then
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install lm-sensors
$ sudo apt-get upgrade (reboot if you have a new kernel installed)
The next thing to do is to run in console:
$ sudo sensors-detect
and given that sensors-detect detects and installs its configuration you
need to:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/lm_sensors restart (or something like that - I'm not
a Debian/Ubuntu user).
