Detection support in sensors-detect doesn't mean much, so I'd first
focus on whether data from the sensors is exported by the driver.
Looking at the ixgbe driver (am I looking at the correct driver?), it
does register a hwmon device, so the data could be available. Let's
verify that - what's the output of the 'sensors' program and the output
of 'cat /sys/class/hwmon/*/name'?
