Details

New lm_sensors packages that add support for the adm1026 and pca9540 chip
are now available.

The lm_sensors package includes a collection of modules for general SMBus
access and hardware monitoring. NOTE: this requires special support which
is not in standard version 2.2 kernels.

These updated packages add userland sensor support for the adm1026
and the pca9540 chipset.

All users of the lm_sensors package are encouraged to upgrade to these
updated packages, which contain these enhancements.
