Um, because the architecture doesn't have an i2c bus. Don't know about rtc but some PA-RISC models definitely have an i2c bus. I see this message on a A500-75 model: The support bus which connects the system processors, the Guardian Service Processor (GSP) and the Power Monitor or

This I2C bus is not acessible by the operating system (as far as I know). HP-UX seems to be able to access fan and power status somehow. It sends me an email when it thinks the i2c is hung, and once a day, it sends a message that a fan which the chassis doesn't have (as far as I can tell) has
