[root@coyote /]# service lm_sensors status
it8716-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
VCore:       +1.14 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
VDDR:        +3.20 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
+3.3V:       +0.00 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
+5V:         +4.76 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +6.85 V)
+12V:       +11.46 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max = +16.32 V)
in5:         +0.00 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
in6:         +0.00 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
5VSB:        +4.81 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +6.85 V)
VBat:        +2.94 V
CPU Fan:    3325 RPM  (min = 1997 RPM)
Case Fan:      0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
fan3:          0 RPM  (min =   10 RPM)  ALARM
CPU Temp:    +47.0°C  (low  =  -1.0°C, high = +127.0°C)  sensor = thermal 
diode
M/B Temp:    +38.0°C  (low  =  -5.0°C, high = +127.0°C)  sensor = thermistor
temp3:       +17.0°C  (low  =  -1.0°C, high = +127.0°C)  sensor = thermistor
cpu0_vid:   +0.613 V

But the only temp I can get is THRM, which seems to be stuck at 104F

However, I did just find an /etc/sensors3.conf.rpmnew and put it into service 
and restarted service lm_sensors, and that does give me 2 more temp readings 
now.

That is a major improvement.

Thanks for triggering my memory.  FWIW this mobo went into service with F8 
installed on it, and it was on the upgrade(not install) of F10 that all this 
went to pot.
