Hi Jean,
I tried the patch here. The 1-register chips got detected.
There still seem to be other chips causing the smbus master to stop
working after the sensors-detect run. I tried to exclude the chips
I could not i2cdump correct (0x47 (some oncpu device) ,0x6e (pcie) and
0x70(sensors chip?) ) and also added 0x52, 0x53 amd 0x57 but still no
luck. After the sensors-detect i can not i2dump chips till a new cold
start.
The detection program hangs for a few (2-3) seconds at the LM75 probing
line on chip at 0x4e (cpu's thermal interface).
A sidenote about my dead chip. When phenoms came out end last year, a
few of the early steppings stopped working after a short time if the
cpu's northbridge ran at low voltage (~1.2V) and the memory ran at
relative high voltage (>2.2V). So the onchip IMC seems to be affected by
high memory voltages.
Also the mayority of phenoms dying during overclocking die while running
low io accessing applications like everest, sandra or speedfan. Not many
really die from too high voltages or temperatures. Unfortunately all
those applications are closed source, but i expect they use similar
probing methods or smbus/i2c devices whom might cause voltage or
frequency peaks which harm the cpu's more than the higher frequencies
and voltages we apply during overclocking.
BTW: I still got no response from Sapphire support about the device at
0x2e, maybe i should tell em. :)

This program will help you determine which kernel modules you need
to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. It is generally safe
and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions,
unless you know what you're doing.
We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
Do you want to probe now? (YES/no):
Probing for PCI bus adapters...
Use driver `i2c-piix4' for device 0000:00:14.0: ATI Technologies Inc
SB600 SMBus
We will now try to load each adapter module in turn.
Module `i2c-piix4' already loaded.
If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them
scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script.
We are now going to do the I2C/SMBus adapter probings. Some chips may
be double detected; we choose the one with the highest confidence
value in that case.
If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address,
you can specify that address to remain unprobed.
Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter at 0b00 (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): selectively
Please enter one or more addresses not to scan. Separate them with
comma's.
You can specify a range by using dashes. Addresses may be decimal (like
54)
or hexadecimal (like 0x33).
Addresses: 0x47,0x57,0x6e,0x70,0x52,0x53
Client found at address 0x2e
Seems to be a 1-register-only device, skipping.

Some chips are also accessible through the ISA I/O ports. We have to
write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe though.
Yes, you do have ISA I/O ports even if you do not have any ISA slots!
Do you want to scan the ISA I/O ports? (YES/no):
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78' at 0x290... No
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78-J' at 0x290... No

Probing for `VIA VT8231 Integrated Sensors'... No
Probing for `IPMI BMC KCS' at 0xca0... No
Probing for `IPMI BMC SMIC' at 0xca8... No
Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. We have to write to
standard I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe.
Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no):
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x2e/0x2f

Some CPUs or memory controllers may also contain embedded sensors.
Do you want to scan for them? (YES/no):
AMD K8 thermal sensors... No

(driver `to-be-written')

Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor... No
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `it87' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* ISA bus, address 0x228
Chip `ITE IT8716F Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9)
Driver `to-be-written' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* Chip `AMD K10 thermal sensors' (confidence: 9)
I will now generate the commands needed to load the required modules.
Just press ENTER to continue:
To load everything that is needed, add this to /etc/modules:
#----cut here----
# Chip drivers
it87
# no driver for AMD K10 thermal sensors yet
#----cut here----
Do you want to add these lines automatically? (yes/NO)

WARNING! This program can confuse your I2C bus, cause data loss and
worse!
