------- Comment #42 from khali@linux-fr.org  2008-05-20 02:04 -------
How much effort it is to access the temperature registers, depend on the type
of sensor device. LPC access is very fast, while SMBus access is slower.
However, reading a single register value over SMBus is not a problem, and
polling every 10 seconds is totally reasonable.

So I see no problem with Matthew's proposal in this respect.
