I don't know exactly what you did, but here's what you are supposed to do: 1* Patch you 2.4.23 kernel sources with this patch: http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/devel/i2c/linux-2.4.23/linux-2.4.23-i2c-2.8.1.patch 2* Configure, compile and install that kernel. 3* Get lm_sensors 2.8.1 (or preferably CVS). Edit the Makefile so that I2C_HEADERS will point to your linux tree. Compile and install. 4* Run ldconfig. And everything should be working. As you'll have notice, you *have* to recompile and reinstall lm_sensors for your new kernel. The patch has been tested by enough people so we know it works OK if you follow the instructions above. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
