It includes pwmconfig. When I ran sudo pwmconfig, it reported "There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed." This despite the fact that sensors-detect *did* find a sensor that it could use and configured the coretemp module to load in support of that. I don't have a conclusion yet, but clearly I would have hoped for pwmconfig to find something that fancontrol could govern.

But when you ran sensors-detect, what did it detect, and what if any modules did it proposed to install? I say this because the README warns regarding laptops: HARDWARE SUPPORT ---------------- To find out what hardware you have, just run 'sensors-detect' as root. Most modern mainboards incorporate some form of hardware monitoring chips. These chips read things like chip temperatures, fan rotation speeds and voltage levels. There are quite a few different chips which can be used by mainboard builders for approximately the same results. Laptops, on the other hand, rarely expose any hardware monitoring chip. They often have some BIOS and/or ACPI magic to get the CPU temperature value, but that's about it. For such laptops, the lm-sensors package is of no use (sensors-detect will not find anything), and you have to use acpi instead. This package doesn't contain chip-specific knowledge. It will support all the hardware monitoring chips your kernel has drivers for. In other words, if you find out that you have unsupported hardware (e.g. sensors-detect told you so) then it means that you need a more recent kernel, or you even need to wait for a new kernel driver to be written. Updating the lm-sensors package itself will not help.
