NAME
       sensors-conf-convert - convert sensors.conf from lm-sensors 2 format to lm-sensors 3 format

SYNOPSIS
       sensors-conf-convert < /etc/sensors.conf > /etc/sensors3.conf

DESCRIPTION
       sensors-conf-convert  converts a sensors.conf file from the old (Linux 2.4, lm-sensors 2) symbol names to the new (Linux 2.6, lm-sensors 3)
       symbol names.

       Implemented conversions:

       - The "algorithm name" part of bus statements is removed.

       - Bus statements for the ISA bus are removed.

       - Chip names containing dashes are removed.

       - Label, ignore, set and compute statements referencing features
	      which are not part of the new interface are removed.

       - Label, ignore, set and compute statements referencing features
	      which have been renamed are updated. This includes both general feature name changes and chip-specific feature name changes.
