I had a quite long chat today with someone that has the same motherboard, and it seems that there's a second bus/chipset couple on this model. You should try to load (in order) i2c-viapro and eeprom, and you should see a number of eeproms matching the number of memory chips on the machine. Didn't sensors-detect tell you about this? Or maybe you just don't care about memory eeproms (and I can't blame you for that ;)). > Note: Previously I said loading it87 temp_type=0x31 and changing > temp1 to be CPU and temp2 to be Motherboard yielded close agreement > between sensors and bios/setup.

More experimentation is required on my part. There are many cases where the same chip will require different temp formulae depending on the motherboard. We do our best to track down all possible formulae, but we don't own all the hardware existing on the planet, so there'll always be ones missing. If you can find a formula that works for you and we are not aware about, please let us know. > Thank you and the other folks for maintaining lm-sensors.
