Hopefully this is good news (W83627THF found but not activated)
Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. Super I/O probes are
typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
this. Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no):
Probing for `ITE 8712F Super IO Sensors'
Failed! (0xe911)
Probing for `SMSC 47M10x Super IO Fan Sensors'
Failed! (0xe9)
Probing for `SMSC 47M14x Super IO Fan Sensors'
Failed! (0xe9)
Probing for `VT1211 Super IO Sensors'
Failed! (0xe9)
Probing for `Winbond W83627HF Super IO Sensors'
Failed! (0xe9)
Probing for `Winbond W83627THF Super IO Sensors'
Success... but not activated, module may not find
Probing for `Winbond W83637HF Super IO Sensors'
Failed! (0xe9)
Probing for `Winbond W83697HF Super IO Sensors'
Failed! (0xe9)
Probing for `Winbond W83697UF Super IO PWM'
Failed! (0xe9)
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `eeprom' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* Bus `SMBus AMD756 adapter at 80e0' (Non-I2C SMBus adapter)
Busdriver `i2c-amd756', I2C address 0x52
Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 8)
* Bus `SMBus AMD756 adapter at 80e0' (Non-I2C SMBus adapter)
Busdriver `i2c-amd756', I2C address 0x53
Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 8)
Driver `bmcsensors' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* ISA bus address 0x0ca0 (Busdriver `i2c-isa')
Chip `IPMI BMC KCS' (confidence: 4)

/proc/ioports showed it free, so i tried it :)
[root at opteron root]# isadump 0x295 0x296
WARNING! Running this program can cause system crashes, data loss and
worse!
I will probe address register 0x0295 and data register 0x0296.

Thanks for the help Jean, and let me know what I can do next.
