You may have to explicitly compile it in. Check out the 'Hardware monitors' 
section of your kernel config file:

# LM7[89] and compatible hardware monitors 
lm0     at isa? port 0x290              # other common ports: 0x280, 0x310

# VIA VT82C686A hardware monitor
viapm*  at pci? dev ? function ?
viaenv* at viapm?

I had no idea which chip my machine had so enabled both and it seems to work 
fine!
