    6 The driver modules in this package are ONLY for 2.4 kernels 2.4.9 or later !!
     6The driver modules in this package are ONLY for 2.4 kernels 2.4.10 or later

     25    (only for 2.4 kernels 2.4.10 or later) 
    3026    This will generate a set of modules which can be inserted and removed 
    3127    as needed; nothing will be written into the kernel tree; 
     
    5854==========================

    60 This lm_sensors release REQUIRES i2c-2.9.0 or later, 
    61 which is not in kernels through (at least) 2.4.28
     56This lm_sensors release REQUIRES i2c-2.9.0 or later, which is not in 
     57any 2.4 kernel (and will never be)
    6258Therefore, you must download and install the i2c package with 
    6359the same version number or higher as this lm_sensors package.

    9187NOTE: option 3 only works with 2.4 kernels 2.4.13 or later; 
    92       option 1 and 2 only work with 2.4 kernels 2.4.9 or later.

    13   * Verify you are running a 2.4 kernel, 2.4.9 or later. 
     13  * Verify you are running a 2.4 kernel, 2.4.10 or later. 
    1414    If you are running a 2.5/2.6 kernel, the ONLY thing you need to 
    1515    do is 'make user' and 'make user_install'. Do NOT follow the rest 
    1616    of these instructions. 
    17  
    18   * Do you require additional i2c-related 
    19     2.4 kernel modules (bttv, i2c-matrox, rivatv, zoran...) ??? 
    20     See the information in README. 
    21     Do NOT follow the rest of these instructions.

    99OVERVIEW OF THE LM_SENSORS PACKAGE AND SUMMARY OF SUPPORTED DEVICES 
    1010 
    11 !!! This package is ONLY for 2.6, 2.5, and 2.4 kernels (2.4.9 or later) !!! 
     11!!! This package is ONLY for 2.6, 2.5, and 2.4 kernels (2.4.10 or later) !!! 
    1212!!! THIS PACKAGE REQUIRES i2c-2.9.0 or later!!! 
    1313 
     
    2323Version 1 is now officially unsupported. 
    2424 
    25 WARNING! This drivers in this package will work on kernels 2.4.9 - 2.4.xx only. 
     25WARNING! The drivers in this package will work on reasonably recent 2.4 
     26kernels only (2.4.10 and later). 
    2627Use lm_sensors-2.4.5 for 2.0 kernels. 
    27 Use lm_sensors-2.7.0 for 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4.0 - 2.4.8 kernels. 
     28Use lm_sensors-2.7.0 for 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4.0 - 2.4.9 kernels. 
    2829Use the drivers already in the kernel for 2.6/2.5 kernels; if you need 
    2930additional drivers in 2.6 please port and submit them to us. 
     
    4041ADDITIONALLY, i2c-2.9.0 is API compatible to i2c releases 2.7.0 and earlier, 
    4142but is not API compatible to i2c releases 2.8.0 - 2.8.8 
    42 due to struct changes. 
    43  
    44 Users whose systems require additional i2c-related 
    45 kernel modules (bttv, i2c-matrox, rivatv, zoran...) 
    46 will require additional patches for the Linux 2.4.x kernels. 
    47 These patches fix compatibility differences between those modules and 
    48 the 2.9.0 i2c release. 
    49 A complete installation guide is available at 
    50   http://khali.linux-fr.org/devel/i2c/ 
     43due to struct changes. Versions 2.8.x of i2c are considered deprecated.
