[Fwd: sensors, kernel 2.4.19, bttv ...]

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It's me again... i just would like to add a word : I've just read i2c
2.8.0 was included in kernels after 2.4.21.
Does it mean that simply upgrading my kernel from 2.4.19 to - say -
2.4.22 will do the trick ?
I mean, then I'll only have to compile lm_sensors and everything will be
fine (bttv and i2c sensors ?)

thanks again

regards,

Pascal
