Current IT87xx chips provide fan, temperature and voltage readings. |

If you built the drivers as modules, are you sure everything (it87 and |
| 7 |
the relevant i2c drivers) is loaded? |

Check the kernel log for any error messages. |

|

Support for a specific sensor chip is provided by the kernel driver, not |
| 14 |
by lm_sensors. sensor-detect only provides advice based on the situation |
| 15 |
at the time it was released; if a more recent revision says that the |
| 16 |
chip is supported, it means that a driver for the chip now exists, *not* |
| 17 |
that the driver provided by the current kernel supports it. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
However, according to this page the it8720F chip seems to be supported |
| 20 |
starting from kernel 2.6.29, so kernel version is not your problem. |
