Jain. Mandrake kernel includes some (most of the) modules available in version integrated in it. It is not always the latest version obviously.

Also libsensors still does not support new sysfs interface and interface itself has problems with providing clean chip identification to user level apps (at least, compatible with old sensors.conf).
