Very strange, I wouldn't expected an unknown Super-I/O chip on such an
old board. Can you find the chip's name by visual inspection of the
board or from the documentation?

The above message means that sensors-detect knows which driver should
be used for the ICH2 SMBus. That doesn't mean the driver did
successfully bind to the device. And if device binding failed (as the
log messages pasted above suggest) then scanning isn't possible.

The AS99127F is an SMBus chip. Please boot with
acpi_enforce_resources=lax and run sensors-detect again, it should find
your AS99127F chip then.
