I'm using gkrellm v2.3.5 to monitor my hardware on my ASUS KCMA-D8 motherboard with kernel v3.1.6. My lm_sensors is v3.3.1. gkrellm lists the w83667hg hardware monitor (together with the k10temp, which works). The voltages (w83667hg@290/in0, etc) all display what seem to be sensible values for this monitor. But the fan speeds w83667hg@290/fan* and temperatures w83667hg@290/temp* all display zero. My CPU fans are all running, and report reasonable values in the BIOS, as well as the temperatures. Can anyone please advise me regarding what I need to change to get the fan speeds & temperatures to work? Thanks.

The output from running sensors-detect is:
Code:

# sensors-detect revision 5984 (2011-07-10 21:22:53 +0200)
# System: System manufacturer System Product Name
# Board: ASUSTeK Computer INC. KCMA-D8

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.

Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors.
Do you want to scan for them? This is totally safe. (YES/no):
Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595...                       No
VIA VT82C686 Integrated Sensors...                          No
VIA VT8231 Integrated Sensors...                            No
AMD K8 thermal sensors...                                   No
AMD Family 10h thermal sensors...                           No
AMD Family 11h thermal sensors...                           No
AMD Family 12h and 14h thermal sensors...                   No
AMD Family 15h thermal sensors...                           No
AMD Family 15h power sensors...                             No
Intel digital thermal sensor...                             No
Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor...                         No
VIA C7 thermal sensor...                                    No
VIA Nano thermal sensor...                                  No

Some Super I/O chips contain embedded 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
Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'...               No
Trying family `SMSC'...                                     No
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'...               Yes
Found `Nuvoton W83667HG-B (NCT5571D) Super IO Sensors'      Success!
    (address 0x290, driver `w83627ehf')
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x4e/0x4f
Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'...               No
Trying family `SMSC'...                                     No
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'...               No
Trying family `ITE'...                                      No

Some systems (mainly servers) implement IPMI, a set of common interfaces
through which system health data may be retrieved, amongst other things.
We first try to get the information from SMBIOS. If we don't find it
there, we have to read from arbitrary I/O ports to probe for such
interfaces. This is normally safe. Do you want to scan for IPMI
interfaces? (YES/no):
Found `IPMI BMC KCS'...                                     Success!
    (confidence 8, driver `to-be-written')

Some hardware monitoring chips are 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):

Lastly, we can probe the I2C/SMBus adapters for connected hardware
monitoring devices. This is the most risky part, and while it works
reasonably well on most systems, it has been reported to cause trouble
on some systems.
Do you want to probe the I2C/SMBus adapters now? (YES/no):
Using driver `i2c-piix4' for device 0000:00:14.0: ATI Technologies Inc SB600/SB700/SB800 SMBus
Module i2c-piix4 loaded successfully.

Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter at 0b20 (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively):

Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue: 

Driver `w83627ehf':
  * ISA bus, address 0x290
    Chip `Nuvoton W83667HG-B (NCT5571D) Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9)

Driver `to-be-written':
  * ISA bus
    Chip `IPMI BMC KCS' (confidence: 8)

Warning: the required module w83627ehf is not currently installed
on your system. If it is built into the kernel then it's OK.
Otherwise, check http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for
driver availability.

Note: there is no driver for IPMI BMC KCS yet.
Check http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for updates.

No modules to load, skipping modules configuration.


Note that my drivers are built into my kernel.

From the motherboard manual

http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketC(1027)/KCMA-D8/Manual&QVL/e6016_kcma-d8.pdf
[/url]
in section 2.2.3 the diagram there shows a hardware monitoring chip called "Winbond W83795G". Which is right? lm_sensors, or the manual?
