Well, that code has support only for a few types of hardware monitoring chips

Damn, I wish I knew earlier... The machine I'm retiring now -- but which
was my primary horse 3 years ago -- has "Super I/O" :-(
So, it greatly depends on exact kind of hardware and sensors that you have.
First thing you should do to is to discover what kind of hardware is used for
monitoring in your server.
In your case that data might be provided via IPMI.
Thanks, I'll explore that pointer...
Especially I am not sure about monitoring DIMM temperature - greatly depends on
the way that it is actually done. Perhaps it's reported via SMBus by the DIMMs
themselves, not sure...
Both NetBSD and OpenBSD (and, likely, DragonFly too) have something
called sdtemp(4):
http://fxr.watson.org/fxr/source/dev/i2c/sdtemp.c?v=NETBSD
I thought, that driver would be part of the unfortunate "basic support
for a few sensors"...
Anyway, I'll try merging the
http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/sensors9.diff, and see, what gives...
Is not it just like Linux, that one needs to get patches from here and
there to get going :-\ ?
