ok! i installed gkrellm but it does not have any options for fans. so i 
got i8krellm but can't install it cuz i need i8kutils. so i got this one 
too. only that this is over my knowledge. i did make - ok; i did make 
install - ok. but it's not ok because i can't find i8k.o. i read i had 
to compile kernel module. this is where i get lost. any help would be 
more than appreciated!
