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 device The steps i took to successfully get it to work:
1. Upgrade to kernel 2.6.22 from etch-backports ( http://www.backports.org) 2. Download lm-sensors source code version 2.10.5 ( http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Download) 3. apt-get install libsysfs-dev bison flex 4. untar lm-sensors tar.bz2 5. make user && make user_install 6. I did not apt-get remove lm-sensors, i installed over it. You choose. 7. sensors-detect 8. modprobe those ones 9. run sensors Hope i could help somebody!
