I use xmbmon -- it seems to work on the VIA chipset on my Gigabyte motherboard without needing special devices in my kernel config. It has no problems getting the temperature information -- it shows the approxmently same values that the BIOS and Windows utilites shows. Xmbmon is aviliable in the ports (/usr/ports/sysutils/xmbmon/). -- James Pole To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
