     42 * '''December 5th, 2006: Note to k8temp users. ''' The Linux 2.6.19 kernel features a new hardware monitoring driver, k8temp, which supports all recent AMD K8 CPUs. The driver will load automatically on supported systems. Due to technical specificities of this driver, upgrade to lm_sensors 2.10.1 is mandatory. Older versions of libsensors will fail with a "General parse error" message. If you can't upgrade lm_sensors for any reason, you'll have to blacklist the k8temp driver to prevent it from being loaded. Thanks to Artem S. Tashkinov for notifying us.

    4244 * '''September 25th, 2006: 2.10.1 Released! ''' See the [source:lm-sensors/trunk/CHANGES CHANGES] document for details. Go to the [wiki:Download download page]  for download instructions. See the [source:lm-sensors/trunk/README README] document for additional warnings and information. '''Please note:''' You will need to install the [http://linux-diag.sourceforge.net/Sysfsutils.html libsysfs library] (or a dev package from your distribution) is you want support for Linux 2.6, because libsensors now depends on it.
