It would appear that older linux kernels find the hardware as follows on this link http://hausheer.osola.com/docs/8 (I realize BSD and linux are different, but perhaps the output there could help someone to know if something there is supported). Sadly, porting lm_sensors to BSD is hard because of all the kernel dependencies and abstraction. But something more "universal" under BSD as opposed to several years-outdated ports would be REALLY COOL. -Dan -- --------Dan Mahoney-------- Techie, Sysadmin, WebGeek Gushi on efnet/undernet IRC ICQ: 13735144 AIM: LarpGM Site: http://www.gushi.org ---------------------------
