I have a Gigabyte GA-7DX motherboard. Under FC2, lmsensors detected both 
a via686a module and an i2c-viapro, which are two different modules for 
the same sensor. I had trouble in the beginning because they cannot be 
used at the same time because of bus access conflicts or something. I 
had set FC2 to use the i2c module because it detects the cpu temp & fan 
while the via686a module detects case & system temp with mobo fan speed 
instead. I can load either module and get different readings, but I 
prefer the readings from the i2c module. In FC3 however, when I modprobe 
either module I still get the no sensors detected message and get no 
readings at all.
