You can still read the man page.

Hello misc@

My IBM (Lenovo) X60 laptop heats up considerably and the battery also discharges faster, when I boot into OpenBSD. This does not seem to be
the case when I boot it into Windows XP.

The relevant temperature sysctls are:
hw.sensors.acpitz0.temp0=73.05 degC (zone temperature)
hw.sensors.acpitz1.temp0=72.05 degC (zone temperature)
hw.sensors.cpu0.temp0=72.00 degC
hw.sensors.aps0.temp0=52.00 degC
hw.sensors.aps0.temp1=52.00 degC

dmesg is put up at http://www.obscure.org/~amunix/tmp/dmesg<http://www.obscure.org/%7Eamunix/tmp/dmesg >

I did read about SpeedStep, and slowing down the processor so that it
consumes less power - so I am going to try it out by tweaking sysctl
"hw.cpuspeed" and changing it from 1829 to 1000, but I am not sure if
this would solve the problem.

Has anyone encountered something similar? If yes, I'd appreciate tips
to fix this
(apart from the SpeedStepping stuff -- will post my findings. Thanks).

Read apmd(8). I have ~ same actual working times on WinXP and OpenBSD.

The Thinkpad X60 is acpi only - no apm.
