Debian way to make lmsensors working with kernel 2.6 ?

[ramzez@netcourrier.com]

I would like to make i2c working with kernel 2.6 to use lmsensors
the problem is that I havent /proc/bus/i2c directory anymore
I read sometimes that I need a /sys directory which is not present in Debian

Is there a solution to make it works ?

For the sys directory, mkdir /sys and then
mount -t sysfs none /sys

you can also add the following line to /etc/fstab
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0

this should give you the sys directory tree

The problem is that the sensors modules in the 2.6 kernel don't generate
entries in the /proc system like the previous versions did. The interface has
been put to /dev (if you're using devfs, there should be a /dev/i2c
directory). Until now, there doesn't seem to be a version of lmsensors to
support this.

no lmsensors to do that ? hmmm, it's a bit annoying :)
