Yes !
In fact I'm running 2.6.5 too, but is my power supply is dying, I had to
remove pci cards and my display, so I didn't notice the bug :/

It's fixed with this patch, Michael, you know what you've to do ;)

To problem is know, do all sensors have a temp_input1/temp1_input ? I
didn't find any good method to guess an i2c device is a temp sensor.

But if the problem appears once again, it's possible to force the path
to the sensors (see the doc in the code)

Bye !
