Thanks for your reply. So that means I will have to get the kernel source for 2.6.22-5 from kernel.org and then apply those 3 patches mentioned at: http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-sensors/2007-July/020605.html and compile the dme1737 driver? Is there any chances that those patches might work with 2.6.18/2.6.20 kernel? If not, is there any way to back port them?
