Thanks, next time could you send me 3 different email messages? 1 mail per patch is much easier to handle, I had to split this up into 3 different messages to apply them to the bk repository. > The main patch adds support for the LM83.

I've applied this, but will have to hold on to it until 2.6.0 comes out, as no new drivers are going to be able to be added. Don't worry, I'll keep track of it and will send it to Linus when 2.6.0 comes out. > The second patch corrects some errors in i2c/chips/Kconfig. > The third patch fixes all chip drivers (but lm83) by moving the > initialization before any sysfs entry is created, as you once requested.

This patch is a good thing and should also go into the 2.4 tree. > Future plans: > - Update my chip driver porting guide, publish it (lm_sensors CVS, > should it go into Linux 2.6.0 as well?) Not really, the cvs tree is good, as it doesn't make much sense when only looking at the 2.6 tree, right? :) > - Port my lm90 driver. > - Port the adm1025 driver. Nice. thanks again for the patches. greg k-h
