Same here: no information via /proc/cpuinfo, but via something like watch cat /sys/devices/temperatures/sensor{1,2}_temperature $ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 cpu : 7447A, altivec supported clock : 833.333000MHz revision : 0.5 (pvr 8003 0105) bogomips : 16.57 timebase : 8320000 platform : PowerMac model : PowerBook5,8 machine : PowerBook5,8 motherboard : PowerBook5,8 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh detected as : 287 (PowerBook G4 15") pmac flags : 00000019 L2 cache : 512K unified pmac-generation : NewWorld With this line in /etc/modules temperature *seems* being fine here: therm_adt746x limit_adjust=-3 $ /sbin/modinfo therm_adt746x filename: /lib/modules/2.6.26-rc5-53c8ba9/kernel/drivers/macintosh/therm_adt746x.ko license: GPL description: Driver for ADT746x thermostat in iBook G4 and Powerbook G4 Alu author: Colin Leroy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> srcversion: C5E974A566B0BBEE52DC46F depends: vermagic: 2.6.26-rc5-53c8ba9 mod_unload parm: limit_adjust:Adjust maximum temperatures (50 sensor1, 70 sensor2) by N degrees.
