and lm_sensors is still out of the kernel (we have got 40ºC in Spain this week, and I would like to know how my PIIs suffer...)

Anybody knows if sensors will get into kernel anytime in this century ? Yes, it can generate patches automagically, but there is a big big lack of sync with latest kernels. Patches generated are silly big because of things like
#endif /* Whatever you like */
vs
#endif XXXXX
and init functions and so on...

Any big reason why you don't use them as modules?

Send some summer over here. It is 15C outside...

You should try latest ACPI patches, they include thermal managment, too.

I have tried the latest CVS i2c+lm_sensors2, and the patches it generates look like much more clean. I am waiting for the announced 2.6 relase, and then will try to send a patch to Alan (if official mantainer do not does it himself...)
