Reading the source, it really is tenths Kelvin. Is the 3692 the actual temp, or the CRT, which I assume is the critical temp? In the output of sysctl hw.acpi.thermal.tz0 there are a bunch of values, only one of which is the current temp. The rest are thresholds - AC appears to mean active cooling (aka fan), PSV seems to mean passive. <whine>How come xmbmon can't interpret acpi temps?</whine> -- Barney Wolff http://www.databus.com/bwresume.pdf I'm available by contract or FT, in the NYC metro area or via the 'Net. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
