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 -----Forwarded Message----- > From: Pascal Ronecker <pascal.ronecker at centrale-lille.net> > To: sensors at stimpy.netroedge.com > Subject: sensors, kernel 2.4.19, bttv ... > Date: 26 Oct 2003 18:24:46 +0100 > > Hi, > > I must say i'm a bit confused with lm_sensors. > I'd like to have it work, i'm running a 2.4.19 kernel.
