You are absolutely correct. I was not suggesting this as the proper
approach, but as a throw-away checkpoint only (the mapping registers
seemed inconsistent between OS/motherboard combinations). I suppose
0x70 is for HWMon and 0x90 is for the SMBus function, in Via 686B.
Have you checked NetBSD, the seem to have a framework for temperature
