No surprise here, as Andreas Bali wrote a driver for Linux 2.6, while kernel drivers in the lm_sensors package are for Linux 2.4. > In "REQUESTED SENSOR CHIP DRIVERS - STATUS" in Initial Support it is > nor in CVS nor in a version only in linux-2.6.8, Correct. > but the driver name is listed as lm77. Linux 2.6 drivers have names too, unsurprisingly, and lm77 sounded like a good name for a driver supporting the LM77 chip. > Is there no linux-2.4.x support? No, as clearly stated on our pages. There is no user-space support either. > Where can I get this driver for linux-2.4.x? You don't, as it doesn't exist. You are welcome to backport it though, and add user-space support if you need it. > I'm really confused. There really is nothing to be confused. Andreas wrote as much of the LM77 support as he personally needed, and left the rest to anyone who would need more than that. It's that easy. -- Jean Delvare
