Sorry it took me a few days to get back to you, but the following seems
to have worked:

I do have a few last questions however:

While I presume I can merely add this to my /etc/modules -- would you
need anything else to be able to auto-detect the A8000?

There seems to be a few discrepancies between the sensors detected by
lm-sensors and Everest (http://www.lavalys.com/):


EVEREST

Temperature
* /dev/hda
* /dev/sda

Voltages
* CPU Core
* +2.5 V
* VTR


LM-SENSORS

V1.5:       +2.54 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +3.32 V)
VCore:      +2.20 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +2.99 V)
fan3:         0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
fan4:         0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
Remote:       +0°C  (low  =  -127°C, high =  +127°C)
CPU_PWM:    96
Fan2_PWM:   89
Fan3_PWM:  255
vid:      +1.850 V  (VRM Version 9.0)


Which may overlap my last question:

So now that I have all these sensors -- what's the significance of
their readings?  Or for that matter what is PWM, vid, etc?

I've googled and came across
http://www.techspot.com/vb/all/windows/t-7658-voltages.html, which
covers most of the voltages... but that still leaves a number which I
haven't been able to find any information on.  Any sources or
explanations greatly welcomed!

Thanks!
