IMHO you need to check what sensor is used and then search the driver for it. Each driver is using a bus, and in case with i2c devices (or others) each device has its slave address. So there is not just a common info on all drivers, but rather each device has it's own complicated driver. To find a particular driver (in case if the sources are available) you can download the kernel and via the gconfig ( make gconfig ) create the .config file in the kernel root directory. Open the created .config file (gedit .config), browse all the values with =y at the end and find your sensor.
As you see it's pretty complicated, but possible.
