(Replying to myself) Here's what I've got:

BTW I developed this using the I2C drivers that shipped with the
2.6.17 kernel. I notice these forked a bit from the lm-sensors
source. What's up with that? Is there a FAQ on it?

Peace,
  Chuck

P.S. - I'm playing with this proximity chip:

I can pick up a human body from two feet away.
