If possible I would like to find out some temperature sensor data. What I have tried is: sysctl hw.acpi - but there is no support for hw.acpi.thermal so from what = I understand there is no thermal support with this. mbmon complains that /dev/smb0 is not configured after I have loaded smbus = smb (and ichsmb (I do not know if this really is correct since ichsmb man d= oes not mention 82845 chipset)) ipmitool i get no /dev/ipmi0 but the ipmi module loads with no errors from what I have heard on pcbsd forum trying to use linux emulation for lm-= sensors would not give the right answers even if I got it to work (but I'm = new to freebsd so it seems like a big project to get that working (I have u= pgraded linux compatibility to fc-6 but I do not know if I need the i2c-dri= vers, I also need to install some linux packages (but lm-sensors.org site i= s not available now so I cannot find out which it was). also i installed some driver/library that was used with chm (I cannot remem= ber now and I cannot find it when I look through pkg_info(perhaps if I coul= d see the date packaged were installed)), anyhow that also complained that = smb0 was not configured. The dell manual mentions some ASF temperature alerts but I do not know if t= his is only for windows. Is it possible to do something with this in wine o= r is it the same as the linux thing mentioned above. I'm sorry if I have overlooked something obvious, but I'm not that used to = nor computers nor linux/unix to know what type of drivers I should search f= or. _________________________________________________________________ Explore the seven wonders of the world http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=3D7+wonders+world&mkt=3Den-US&form=3DQ= BRE=
