For lm-sensors 2.10.x, yes, you'd need to patch libsensors and sensors and virtually every monitoring application out there. But the preferred solution is to just upgrade to lm-sensors 3.0.x, which automatically detects the device features, so every new driver is supported right away. > Luca what do you think about creating a proper patch for the driver too and send it over to > Greg to be included in his linux-staging tree ? I think that way it will get more testing. Don't know which Greg you're thinking of? This is an ACPI-based hardware monitoring driver, so it would go to either the ACPI folks or (IMHO better) to the hwmon folks (i.e. the lm-sensors list). I agree that having a proper patch would be nice (but I also want to say that I will not have the time to review the driver myself.) -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
