What happened here is that the script thought you had a different chip
(W83792D), and since this chip had no driver back then, it did not add
it to the list at all. So the real bug here is a chip misdetection. If
we can fix that, then the correct driver will be listed in
/etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors as expected.

I would like to know whether the current version of the script still has
the problem, or not. Could you please download the latest version here:

http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/cvs/lm_sensors2/prog/detect/sensors-detect

And report whether this is any better or not?

Thanks,
