Cool.  Have you compiled this?
(Which do you pick?  lm78-1.2.3.tgz or lm_sensors-1.4.6.tar.gz)

I get:

  # insmod ./lm_sensors.o
  ./lm_sensors.o: kernel-module version mismatch
          ./lm_sensors.o was compiled for kernel version 2.0.33
          while this kernel is version 2.0.35.

It must be getting the wrong kernel version 2.0.33 from
/usr/include/linux/version.h

  $ grep linux/version *.c
  lmsysctl.c:#include <linux/version.h>
  smbus.c:#include <linux/version.h>
  
  $ dpkg -S /usr/include/linux/version.h
  libc6-dev: /usr/include/linux/version.h

If I force it:

  # insmod -f ./lm_sensors.o
  Warning: kernel-module version mismatch
          ./lm_sensors.o was compiled for kernel version 2.0.33
          while this kernel is version 2.0.35
  
  ./lm_sensors.o: init_module: Device or resource busy

So no luck so far.  (This is why I love .debs !)
