Urpmi spits a message out to the command line post-install:
[austin at blackbox ~]$ cat /usr/share/doc/lm_sensors/README.urpmi
* To use this package, you'll have to launch "sensors-detect" as root,
and ask few questions.
No need to modify startup files as shown at the end, all will be done.
* Special note for via686a and i2c-viapro : if you dont see the values,
you probably have a PCI conflict.
It will be corrected in next kernel. Change
the /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors to use i2c-isa + via686a
(or i2c-viapro + another sensor)
[Sorry for the Mandriva English.]
In the case that the package in question is installed via rpmdrake,
urpmi message pop up in a graphical text box.
