I need to be able to get the cpu and fan information from my

can get
this information using ACPI and the hw.acpi.thermal sysctl. This

motherboards ACPI implementation, or a lack of support by freebsd?
Does this one support IPMI?
Yes, the Supermicro PDSMi supports the IPMI 2.0 module and I can
confirm that it works with the IPMI ported driver from current on
6.1. The module is optional so you will have to purchase one for
the system, around 0. You will also need the latest BIOS loaded on
the motherboard for it to work.
