     7For recent 2.6 kernels (2.6.9 and later), you need at least lm_sensors 2.8.8. If the drivers you need are platform drivers (as opposed to i2c drivers), you need at least lm_sensors 2.10.1.

    79Most bus drivers have been ported to kernel 2.6; however, only 74% of the chip drivers have been ported.

    6870Naming and magnitude standards for sysfs data was just stabilizing in early 2.6 kernels. As a result, we did our best to ensure that lm_sensors was compatible with the kernel state at any given state, and released often. This also means that each version of lm_sensors from 2.8.2 (the first 2.6 kernel compatible release) to 2.8.5 only work properly for a limited range of kernel versions.
