Motherboard is an Intel DG965WH with ICH8 chipset, Core 2 Duo 6300 chip. FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p1 #2: at one point I thought it used IPMI and compiled in the ipmi driver, but it doesn't create the /dev/ipmi device so I am assuming I was wrong. the manual talks about WfM platform, but searching for that gets me nowhere. no, mbmon doesn't work >-: thanks for any info -- DA Fo rsyth Network Supervisor Principal Technical Officer -- Institute for Water Research http://www.ru.ac.za/institutes/iwr/
