For owners of an Asus mainboard there is a better work-around than the dangerous "acpi_enforce_resources=lax" proposal described above:
http://www.ubuntu-forum.de/artikel/47250/workaround-lm-sensors-auf-ubuntu-9-10-mit-it87-chip-driver.html (German)

It recommends to compile and install lm-sensors 3.1.1 directly from
Debian sources. This latest version of lm-sensors supports direct access
to hwmon sensors in sysfs. For Asus boards all missing it87 sensors now
appear as atk0110 sensors, when entering 'sensors' on the command line.
After recompiling the ksensors package from Ubuntu karmic with
libsensors4 support, the missing sensors can also be used and displayed
by ksensors.

Hopefully, the new versions of lm-sensors and ksensors will be part of
Ubunut jaunty.
