Hi,
To get lm-sensors working I have to run
sudo modprobe w83627ehf force_id=0x8860
each time I log in, now would it be better to add to modprobe.conf? or rc.local ?

Create a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ with whatever name, put this inside:
options w83627ehf force_id=0x8860
That should do exactly what you want.

Thanks very much :-), I always thought you add stuff to modprboe.conf

That actually does not work for me either. :S

You can add it to modprobe.conf, but it can get overwritten during upgrades.
whargoul: it should work just like that, see here for reference http://linux.die.net/man/5/modprobe.d

Actually, modprobe.conf doesn't get overwritten during upgrade - it's in the backup array for the module-init-tools package, so pacman will leave it alone, and install a *.pacnew alongside.

Yeah I have done that.
I have a file named options in /etc/modprobe.d. One of the options is:
options usbcore autosuspend=1
However powertop tells me that it USB autosuspend isn't set.
EDIT:
Forgive my stupidity, but I forgot that my USB mice keeps the the USB port busy. So it is infact working for me.

What is happening? Actually I found out that it is working quite alright.
As I said in #7 I use USB suspend to keep power consumption down. However my USB mice keeps my USB ports busy, so don't they won't put to sleep while I am using it. But if I unplug it, the ports will go to sleep.

Hm, I did not see your Edit. Sorry.
But anyway, its still not working for me - I did exactly the same as Hohoho suggested...
Sensors work if I load the module manually after logging in.
Ok it works now. Somehow I thought this file would replace the module entry in rc.conf.
