Dear Maintainer,

    * What led up to the situation?

I ran sensors-detect

    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
      ineffective)?

I followed the prompt to reload modules at the end of the sensors-detect
output:

Monitoring programs won't work until the needed modules are
loaded. You may want to run '/etc/init.d/kmod start'
to load them.

Unloading i2c-dev... OK
Unloading cpuid... OK

root@office2:~# /etc/init.d/kmod start

    * What was the outcome of this action?
