That task is left to, well... packagers. And packagers are free to split our lm_sensors2 module in as many packages as they want. Second, userspace tools aren't ready for 2.6 yet anyway, although some work has already been done to achive that. Third, you can use "make user" and "make user_install" in lm_sensors2 to build and install only the user-space tools. That said, I agree that splitting our CVS module as a kernel module and a user-space module would be great. But it is also a complex operation, breaking developer's habits, making tracking changes harder, and so on. For this reason, I doubt it'll be done soon, if ever. Maybe once there is real user-space support for 2.6 kernels, we'll think of splitting, who knows. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
