Can anyone give a few pointers on what the status of the drivers are in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 2? This distro advertises a kernel of 2.6.9-22.0.1 and the lm_sensors userspace rpm that ships with it claims to be lm_sensors 2.8.7. Does anyone know if Red Hat has in fact patched their kernel with newer i2c/lm_sensors stuff and kept the version numbers the same, as they often do? If not, is there any other recourse to get the latest drivers? i.e. is there a good set of patches somewhere on the web site to patch and recompile i2c/lm_sensors 2.9.2 (latest version) into the heavily patched 2.6.9 series of kernels that redhat puts out? The tests I have done on older hardware thus far indicate that the lm_sensors that ships with the redhat kernel supports most of the older stuff, but there are some newer boards with w83792d chips where I definitely need the new w83792d driver, and that is certainly not in the stock redhat packag.
