Use the drivers ...". The missing drivers have simply not be ported to Linux 2.6 yet, either because we didn't have the time, or because nobody asked. This includes the maxilife driver (nobody asked AFAIR). Don't attempt to use the drivers from the lm_sensors tree with a Linux 2.6 kernel, it really won't work - too many things have changed between 2.4 and 2.6 kernels. What makes you think you have a maxilife chip? This is a rare chip, we don't even detect it in sensors-detect, and the driver seems to be a bit... messy. I doubt this chip would be found in any recent system. -- Jean Delvare
