I'm sure my motherboard (Gigabyte GA-7ZXE) has sensors because I can see temperatures and voltages via BIOS and mbmon.

Most desktop systems don't. xmbmon should still work by accessing the hardware-monitor chip directly (over SMBUS, I/O ports, kernel driver, or whatever). -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
