    3 We have two wiki pages describing the status of our drivers or requested drivers. 
    4  
    5  * Our [wiki:NewDrivers New drivers/request page] - if you need to know if the somebody works on the chip driver or if there is some testing version of driver available. 
    6  * Our [wiki:SupportedDevices Supported devices page] - if you need to know in which version of kernel/lm-sensors has been the driver released. 
    7  
    83If you don't know what devices are on your system, please follow our ''' [wiki:iwizard/1 Installation Wizard]. '''

    10 We are now in process of moving the two wiki pages together.

    125This is the summary page listing over 200 devices supported by the lm_sensors package. Unless noted, these drivers are supported by us and included in our lm_sensors package. Other drivers not supported by us but compatible with our package are listed as well for your information. 
    136 
    147Drivers are listed in two groups: '''bus''' and '''sensor chip'''. In general, you need one of each. Bus drivers are the I2C/SMBus bus masters. Unless your sensor chip is on the PCI or ISA (I/O) bus, a bus driver is required to access any device on the bus. PCI and ISA sensors shouldn't need a bus driver, but the older ones still use the 'dummy' bus driver i2c-isa. Chip drivers are used to access the sensor chips themselves and export the readings.

    16 To find out '''what driver you need and what chips you have''' use the sensors-detect utility in our package. If your version of sensors-detect failed to detect a chip, you should try the [http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/prog/detect/sensors-detect?format=txt latest version of sensors-detect].
