LM_Sensors 3.0.3 was just released earlier this week, but a rather interesting patch has appeared today on the LM_Sensors mailing list. Back in July an AMD Phenom Thermal Linux driver was made for LM_Sensors, but today's patch adds the AMD Phenom 10h support to the k8temp driver. Additionally, this patch also provides thermal monitoring support for AMD's 11h processors.

This patch still has a few issues to be addressed with it and testing on the newer AMD CPUs, but this is certainly a good step forward. The patch and mailing list message can be found at lm-sensors.
