/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC:
#lm0    at isa? port 0x290              # other common: 0x280, 0x310

This matches the files.isa section:
# LM78 temp/fanspeed monitor
attach  lm at isa with lm_isa
file    dev/isa/lm_isa.c                lm_isa

I believe this is the driver you're talking about here.  I can't
answer the other questions, but I've used this driver on older x86
motherboards.  Not recently, maybe P3 on 440BX.
