I don't think that there is any thermal sensor connected to the W83627HF chip. You must have another hardware monitoring chip for the temperatures. Intel has an history of using LM85/ADM1027-compatible chips. The output of sensors-detect you provided shows that it didn't find any PCI SMBus master. The lspci output reveals a 6300ESB, which is too recent for lm_sensors 2.8.6. That explains it. I don't know which kernel you are using, but if it is a recent 2.6 kernel (>= 2.6.7) you might try modprobing i2c-i801 and run sensors-detect again (which should then find that LM85/ADM1027-compatible chip - unless it is itself too new). If you have an older 2.6 kernel, you'll need to upgrade. -- Jean Delvare
