Hi,
I've been trying to figure out if it's possible to get the temperature
readings from the asus a8v motherboard via envstat ?
Anyone that's succesfully done this? and if so how ?
Thanks in advance.

if you have ACPI enabled in the kernel, acpitz* might work.

I have such a mb with -current, acpi/acpitz enabled, but acpitz
does not seem to auto configure.

pkgsrc/sysutils/mbmon claims to work, but returns values that don't
seem to be right, unless what it claims to be celcius values
are actually farenheit. :-)

I've been doing that with lm0 enabled in the kernel config file.

I just tried enabling it in the kernel but it doesn't seem to change
anything:

$ envstat -r
envstat: No sensors found

Can you explain how you made it work ? or give me a hint at what I am
doing wrong? Thanks.

I haven't been using NetBSD/amd64 lately. I'll try to boot it
this weekend, to check it, and I'll call you back.

! I'm terribly sorry, but I was wrong: my board is K8V,
not A8V. Maybe that makes the whole difference.
