How do you make lm_sensors see a hwmon device?

Hi all,

I've written a driver for a USB device that has a number of sensors on it
(it's a PC power supply with a USB cable for voltage/current monitoring) and
the device appears in the hwmon class.

Unfortunately I can't figure out how to make lm_sensors "see" it (when I run
"sensors" it isn't displayed, and programs like gkrellm that use lm_sensors
don't see the device or its sensors.)  The files all seem to be in the same
place as other devices which work, and I'm running a fairly recent version of
lm_sensors (3.0.3.)

Any ideas how to make my device appear to lm_sensors?

$ ls /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon[45]/device/name
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4.0K 2009-10-11 22:55 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon4/device/name
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4.0K 2009-10-11 23:24 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon5/device/name

$ cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon[45]/device/name
coretemp
odin

$ cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon[45]/device/temp1_input
50000
39000

Many thanks,
Adam.
