Looked to me like all sensors-detect did was update sysconfig (to store the
list of kernel modules somehwere), at least on my distro.  And my manual
efforts to invoke 'modprobe' were insufficient.  But the init script was what
did the trick.

Some things about Linux remain black magic, despite decades of experience and
tweaking.
