Nothing in the BIOS for "monitoring" at all which probably means there isn't anything available (well, the machine was cheap...). The output of acpidump can be found at: http://www.informatik.uni-kiel.de/%7Eca/tests/acpi.full (it's almost 4000 lines so I didn't want to include it here). After enabling the ACPI related options in the kernel I get these additional lines in dmesg: acpi0 at mainbus0: rev 0 acpi0: tables DSDT FACP BOOT SSDT HPET MCFG SLIC APIC acpitimer0 at acpi0: 3579545 Hz, 24 bits acpihpet0 at acpi0 table HPET: 232830 Hz acpibtn0 at acpi0: PWRB acpicpu0 at acpi0: CPU0: 2000, 1800, 1000 MHz acpicpu1 at acpi0: CPU1: 2000, 1800, 1000 MHz but nothing else is different (except for date/name/avail mem of course).
