I've got FC3 on a 770Z and get the same message when booting up. No
harm done.

If you look in the /lib/modules tree, you'll see that the lm_sensors
modules are missing. I guess that the FC3 installer autodetects a TP
and just doesn't install the sensors modules.

I think that the message comes from the startup scripts in /etc/rc.d,
where loading the sensors modules is one of the functions at bootup,
and it reports loading them even if they're disabled.

Summary: Not to worry.
