Ermm, yes.  Indeed this wont work.  Sorry for the noise.

Well, from http://www.supermicro.com/support/faqs/faq.cfm?faq=3099 you
pointed out, I think the sensor where fan, temp and so on is the W83792D and
not the W83627HF.  That's one is probably not yet supported by healthd
nor mbmon, and a quick and the spec show that you can access it only via
SMBus.
