Not *all* P4s are HT capable. (e.g. my older 1.8GHz Northwood) Is 'ht'
included among the flags in /proc/cpuinfo ?

I can't help you much w/ ACPI temps, sorry.

One of my machines uses the same driver (w83627hf). It works OK for me.
What version of lm_sensors? What kernel version?

Hmmm, it almost looks like the sensor chip is not there... notice all the
voltage readings are at the top end of their scales. I bet the chip is
responding with all 0xff. Try this as root: 'isadump 0x295 0x296' (very
small chance it could crash the machine, sorry) and send me the results.

The (VID error) indicates a probable mismatch between lm_sensors version and
kernel version. See here: http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/kernel26.html
(about halfway down) That could be *a* problem, but that's not the whole
problem.

Also, did you run sensors-detect? Did it identify anything else besides
the w83627hf? Can you find the w83627hf on the board, physically? It's
roughly postage-stamp sized, and it says "Winbond" on it.
Finally, some of the (other) developers hang out on #linux-sensors on
freenode. Also, the lm_sensors mailing list is open (no need to subscribe)
sensors AT stimpy DOT netroedge DOT com
I hope this helps; regards,
