The 2.6.18-mm2 patch applies on top of 2.6.18, but I wouldn't recommend
using an old -mm kernel.

The driver in 2.6.19-rcX has one more fix from Rudolf Marek for fan5
detection, that wasn't present in 2.6.18-mmX.

I suggest that you try 2.6.19-rc5 (or even 2.6.19-rc5-git2 or whatever
is the latest Linus' tree when you fetch it.) It's probably the most
stable kernel tree you can hope for which will include the support you
need.

Note that you'll also need lm_sensors 2.10.1 for user-space support.
