Are you running all the necessary kernel support? I am not familiar with your 
motherboard, but generally you need to load drivers for your i2c 
communication methods and drivers for the sensor chips.
As an example, on my system there is an lm85 sensors chip connected via an AMD 
SMBus interface, and a w83627hf sensors chip connected via an ISA interface. 
So, to support all of these I have to load the following kernel modules:
	lm85, i2c_amd756
	w83627hf, i2c_isa
Modprobe'ing these also loads the dependencies i2c_sensor and i2c_core.
