did you try lm_sensors 2.9.0 ?
yes, i tried lm_sensors-2.9.0 - the same results
I did some further investigations and found the compute temp2 @*2.0, @/2.0 statement for the as99127f chip in /etc/sensors.conf. It seems that this correction is no longer needed for the kernel 2.6.11 (at least for my mb: ASUS A7V266EX)
