Though it is called the LM78 driver, there is not too much LM78 specific
code in it; it can better be seen as an example code skeleton for other
drivers. Right now, it creats a file /proc/sensors-test, which contains
a list of busses it registered itself on. Stupid, but very useful for
testing purposes!
You need a 2.0 kernel for lm78.o to insert (or hack the /proc system
specific parts; see lm78.c of lm_sensors version 1 how to do this).
Other parts of lm_sensors-2 are not tested for 2.1 kernels either, but
I am certain it won't work in this case :-).
See the TODO list to get some idea what is left to do, choose something
and implement it. Or not :-). But please, send a note to the mailing
list when you start on something, to avoid duplicate work...
Other notable changes:
the smbus_access routines now use (the more logical) i2c_adapter
structure, instead of smbus_adapter.

* Modules now print their version number and date on insertion
* Some printk statements missed a \n
* 'make clean' now works, even if some .d (dependency) files contain garbage.
Note that *only* 'make clean' helps in that case; 'make clean all', for
example, will fail! There is really no nice way to solve that.

The real PIIX4 access code must still be written; perhaps somebody else could
do this? Most of it could be copied from the old piix4.c. But check carefully
what you are doing, as some things *have* changed (like the SMBUS_{BYTE,...}
variables!).

effect anything in an adverse way (except possibly messing up the
name-space a bit :'). But, it compiles and *should* link OK. Testers???

The i2c modules now compile and insert without any problem. If I only had
a VIA mainboard...

Please examine the Makefile before extending it, as its approach is
completely new. It should be very modular now, though. Makefile fragments
are called Module.mk.
The Module.mk in i2c does not handle dependencies yet.
There are some patches to bit-mb.c to make it compile with 2.0 kernels.
They have been sent to Simon Vogl (author of the i2c module).

README.directories contains a description of the directories I created;
read it if you have questions about them.
doc/design is the design document I sent before through email.
doc/useful_addresses.html contains links to I2C, SMBus and sensors
information.
Note that we may have to change minor i2c things, like Makefiles; this
is why I put it in the archive too (we should, of course, send important
changes to Simon Vogl).
