Yes, I have it working on a couple of different machines.  First, take a
look at the /usr/share/doc/lm_sensors*/FAQ file.  It has some fairly
useful information.  Then, run the "sensors-detect" command and record
the output.  It gives some ominous warnings, but I have never had any
issues.  Record the output of "sensors-detect" and use it in a simple
script similar to the one below:

#! /bin/ksh

modprobe i2c-viapro
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe lm80
modprobe eeprom
modprobe via686a
sensors -s

This script can then be called from /etc/rc.local so that it will run
during the boot process.  Add the Hardware Monitoring applet to your
panel and adjust the sensors as necessary.  Save the setup when you exit
X so that the applet reappears with each X restart.  That's it.

Good luck.
