I'm so happy, de merde!.. So, like... When installing mbmon, it gives you an option to disable SMB support; I did never even think about disabling it because where would it take the data from?!.. I do not have ISA or I2C, so SMB seemed like the only way. But, with this support, it's completely impossible to read the temperatures (and -d says that, like, ICH found but there is hardware monitor on it...), and when you disable this support - it reads everything properly!! Thank you very much, my new old CPU will now rest happily knowing that I always watch carefully after its temperature...
