Dear Srs,
I need to get the CPU temperature in a Supermicro X6DH8-XG2
motherboard,
this is the link for key features:

http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon800/E7520/X6DH8-XG2.cfm

According with the page specs, X6DH8-XG2 seems to have some thermal
monitoring chip/hardware:
    * Monitoring for CPU and chassis environment
    * CPU thermal trip support
    * Thermal Monitor 2 support
When running lm-sensors 2.10.1-3 (with libsensors3) on a Debian
Etch box
I get:
# sensors
No sensors found!
Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
This is the output for "sensors-detect":

Did you go to the mentioned web site to look to see whether the
PC87427 is supported by lm-sensors 2.10.1-3?

*I* did.  But then, I'm not the OP.


Let's see. How do I say this... The suspense is killing me... *Is the PC87427 chip supported?*
