I only have physical access to two of the machines at the moment, one is 
at a remote site.  Even the two that I have access to it would not be  
convienent (for both me and the users) to pop the covers off right now.  
However, I was able to find the board on the Web at 
http://www.kobian.com/products.php?productid=340.

It indicates that is uses "System Hardware Monitor: Built-in ITE8705F".  
But with only the it87 driver it appears that sensors does not seem to 
return any data.  Are there any special tricks to make this work?
