problem with lm_sensors.

My system is core i7 860 / asus p7p55d 
Archlinux kernel 2.6.30

I'm install lm_sensors 3.1.1 but its seem doesn't work.
When I run sensors-detect, the result is

Driver `max6650':
  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter '
    Busdriver `nvidia', I2C address 0x4b
    Chip `Maxim MAX6650/MAX6651' (confidence: 3)

And this is output when I run sensors.

Re: problem with lm_sensors.

It is strange because the Intel "coretemp" temperature sensor should be detected. You could try to load the coretemp module manually using modprobe and then test whether the output of sensors changes. If not, you should at least be able to monitor the temperatures via the sysfs files using

cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon*/device/temp1_input
