I was thinking about using the 'force' parameter to givie the address
explicitly to the module, the device may be on non standard port.
sensors-detect is usually more capable of detecting devices than kernel
modules

Haven't read the source of this module, but you'll probably have to compile
kernel (or at least the module) with different .config (one that enables
debugging messages)

I'm just a random lm-sensors user, so it's more of the blind leading the blind
case and educated guess than real inside knowledge about lm-sensors...
