I am almost certain that this is wrong and you don't need the via686a
driver on this old board, but the w83781d driver for Asus' proprietary
AS99127F monitoring ASIC.

The problem was already discussed and solved on this list 2 months ago:
http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-sensors/2011-January/031108.html
http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-sensors/2011-January/031111.html

The bottom line is that you have to add acpi_enforce_resources=no to
the boot command line (in lilo or grub configuration) to get sensors to
work again on this board.
