Question ? lm_sensors doesn't find the correct sensor chip under under Mandrake 9.1 ?  

 Mandrake has the correct lm_sensors version in - however - the sensors_detect perl-script needs to be updated to find the correct chip. You can get that script here:
http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/cvs/lm_sensors2/prog/detect/sensors-detect
A local copy is attached to this FAQ entry.
Once run - you need to make sure that the following modules are loaded through /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors

MODULE_0=i2c-viapro
MODULE_1=i2c-isa
MODULE_2=eeprom
MODULE_3=vt1211

After that - adapt the /etc/sensors.conf file - Check mine in the related files section of this FAQ. Note that the Mini-ITC Nemiah M10000 seem to have only one temperature sensor. All others give back Junk.
Check the entire setup by starting it through /etc/rc.d/init.d/lm_sensors start After that - a sensors output should provide something like this:

eeprom-i2c-0-50
Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 0500
Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter
Memory type:            DDR SDRAM DIMM SPD
Memory size (MB):       512

vt1211-isa-6000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Algorithm: ISA algorithm
VCore1:    +2.31 V  (min =  +2.24 V, max =  +2.74 V)
+5V:       +4.71 V  (min =  +4.48 V, max =  +5.49 V)
+12V:     +11.78 V  (min = +10.77 V, max = +13.15 V)
+3.3V:     +3.28 V  (min =  +3.13 V, max =  +3.45 V)
Proc Temp: +56.5C  (limit =  +65C, hysteresis =  +60C)
