I am not familiar with the gnome sensors applet. Does it say where it
is getting the data (driver name, device name...)?

You forgot to list the Hardware Monitoring support options.

Please provide the output of lsmod.

If you are using one of the following drivers: lm78, smsc47b397,
smsc47m1, w83627hf or w83781d, you need lm_sensors >= 2.10.1
(libsensors.so.3.1.1 or later).
