Have you tried doing as it suggested?

[wparad]

Which is what us exactly. I don't see anything suggested either in the message or in this repo for what to do. Thin message shows up and that's it.

The message says to open the preferences window, have you tried doing that?

How do I "open the preferences" window?

Ah ok - sorry I think there was some confusion. I think perhaps there is some issue between whatever desktop environment you are running and what indicator-sensors expects - it assumes you have a desktop which supports application indicators (ie. either GNOME with the https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/615/appindicator-support/ extension installed (or the Ubuntu fork of it - https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-shell-extension-appindicator) or KDE - can you please include some more details like how you installed indicator-sensors and what desktop environment you are running? Thanks.

I think I used apt or whatever instructions there were for Ubuntu. I run xfce with minimal support packages for some ede and gnome things, but likely neither of those things that you listed.
