    14 FOR 2.5 KERNELS, Do not attempt to compile this package. 
    15                  Use the drivers already in the 2.5 kernel development tree. 
     14FOR 2.6/2.5 KERNELS, Use only the userspace tools in this package. 
     15Build and install them with 'make user' and 'make user_install'. 
     16The kernel modules in this package will not compile for 2.6/2.5; 
     17use the drivers already in the 2.5 kernel development tree.

    1719============================================================================= 
     
    2123Version 1 is now officially unsupported. 
    2224 
    23 WARNING! This package will work on kernels 2.4.9 - 2.4.xx only. 
     25WARNING! This drivers in this package will work on kernels 2.4.9 - 2.4.xx only. 
    2426Use lm_sensors-2.4.5 for 2.0 kernels. 
    2527Use lm_sensors-2.7.0 for 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4.0 - 2.4.8 kernels. 
    26 Use the drivers already in the kernel for 2.5 kernels; if you need 
    27 additional drivers in 2.5 please port and submit them to us. 
     28Use the drivers already in the kernel for 2.6/2.5 kernels; if you need 
     29additional drivers in 2.6 please port and submit them to us. 
    2830 
    29 WARNING! You must get the latest i2c package, i2c-2.8.0, 
     31HOWEVER, the userspace tools in this package will work for 
     322.4, 2.5, and 2.6 kernels. 
     33 
     34WARNING! You must have at least i2c-2.8.1. 
    3035EVEN IF your kernel does contain i2c support!!!!!!!!! 
     36You may wish to get the latest i2c package, i2c-2.8.2, 
    3137 
    3238The I2C package in existing 2.4 kernels is NOT sufficient 
    3339for compilation of this package. 
    3440 
    35 ADDITIONALLY, i2c-2.8.0 is not API compatible to earlier i2c 
     41ADDITIONALLY, i2c-2.8.1 is not API compatible to earlier i2c 
    3642releases due to struct changes; therefore you must NOT ENABLE 
    3743any other i2c drivers (e.g. bttv) in the kernel. 
    38 Do NOT use lm-sensors 2.8.0 or i2c-2.8.0 if you require bttv. 
     44Do NOT use lm-sensors 2.8.1 or i2c-2.8.1 if you require bttv.
