I have a Dell PowerEdge SC440 here and I'm not having much luck with smbmsg: # smbmsg -p Probing for devices on /dev/smb0: [ lots and lots of 'ichsmb0: device timeout, status=0x41' ] As far as I can see, I've got all the relevant devices built into the kernel (from kldstat -v: ichsmb/smbus, pci/ichsmb, iicbus/iicsmb, smbus/smb, intsmb/smbus, pci/intsmb). This is a Dell-branded motherboard, so I've no idea what it's based on. The boot message shows 'ichsmb0: '. Cheers, --Jon
