Problem SOLVED!So for anyone using a new motherboard with Etch facing the same error many people were:
FATAL: Error inserting w83627ehf (/lib/modules/2.6.18-6-686/kernel/drivers/hwmon/w83627ehf.ko): No such deviceThe steps i took to successfully get it to work:
- Upgrade to kernel 2.6.22 from etch-backports (http://www.backports.org)
- Download lm-sensors source code version 2.10.5 (http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Download)
- apt-get install libsysfs-dev bison flex
- untar lm-sensors tar.bz2
- make user && make user_install
- I did not apt-get remove lm-sensors, i installed over it. You choose.
- sensors-detect
- modprobe those ones
- run sensors
Hope i could help somebody!

Check the changesets between kernel versions and you will see more details on what has changed in that specific driver. Could be that you need a newer driver.
