So 3240 = 324K = 51C = 123F. Definitely running hot :) The _XXX entries are read-only trigger points; see the acpi_thermal manpage for more info. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Thanks... but! [EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/adam]$ mbmon No Hardware Monitor found!! InitMBInfo: Unknown error: 0 lmmon detects '255C' and so I'm guessing it's not reading values correctly.

ASUS Laptop - CPU Temp utility?
Does anyone know of a motherboard monitor utility that I can use on an ASUS laptop running FreeBSD 5.3? I'm not sure which specific board it has. It's been generating a *lot* of heat lately and I want to try and monitor the CPU temperature.
