Huu, that's not what I suggested. Leave the adm1021, adm1025, adm1026,
adm1029 and adm1031 drivers alone, they won't work for you. Instead,
try loading the lm85 driver that way:

modprobe lm85 force_adm1027=0,0x2e

The exact parameter depends on the I2C bus and address where
sensors-detect found the ADT7467/8 chip. The above is for bus i2c-0,
address 0x2e. Adjust the command if the bus number or the chip address
differ on your system.

As you are using lm-sensors 2.10.1 with a recent kernel, it is possible
that libsensors won't work properly with the forced ADM1027 chip, but
at least you should be able to read some temperature values directly
from /sys/class/hwmon.

Yep, these temperatures look reasonable.
