I have prime x370 and breaks when I try to modprobe

sudo modprobe asus-wmi-sensors

modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'asus_wmi_sensors': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Hi, this suggests that the kernel was built without WMI I believe.

Also, as per the readme, there are no supported prime X370 boards so this won't work even if you got past the compilation issues.

Finally this driver has been merged into kernel mainline, so I'd recommend using that over this repository.
