Announcing the release of kmod-k10temp in ELRepo.

http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-k10temp

Description :
kmod-k10temp provides a backported AMD K10 core temperature monitor 
driver module for reporting the CPU temperature for AMD K10 series 
processors.


Many thanks to Wes for contributing this package to ELRepo, before it's 
even been included into the mainline kernel - that has to be a first for 
both ELRepo and Enterprise Linux.

Anyway, this driver also requires an updated lm_sensors, and the 
necessary patches have been included in our lm_sensors-2.10.8-2 build in 
the main repository.

Running 'sensors-detect' should detect the sensor like so:

Driver `k10temp' (should be inserted):
   Detects correctly:
   * Chip `AMD K10 thermal sensors' (confidence: 9)


and running 'sensors' gives a single temperature reading:

k10temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1:       +43°C
