Just browsing: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/acpi_support/acpi_ibm.c What revision of that have you? It's not clear to me tha this fan level stuff, documented with rev 1.10, was ever MFC'd to 6-STABLE. If I'm diffing the right versions it appears that it wasn't, and the comment on 1.7.2.3 (6.X) says only 'MFC: 1.11, 1.12', but that seems not so, if I'm reading the diffs against any of those versions right (incl 1.14 @ 7.0) http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/acpi_support/acpi_ibm.c.diff?r1=text&tr1=1.7.2.3&r2=text&tr2=1.10 > > > I will follow up in -acpi@ too i think Not that there hasn't been lots of interesting discussion here, but I reckon you may do better there, as it's 100% an ACPI issue.

I'd not known which of these were which before, thanks Richard! my %sensors = ( "1", "CPU", "2", "Mini PCI Module", "3", "HDD", "4", "GPU", "5", "Built-in battery", "6", "UltraBay battery", "7", "Built-in battery", "8", "UltraBay battery"); so your GPU is running pretty hot too .. > i know. forget about running QEmu ... > > I think it could be that my particular version of laptop doesn't > trigger that section of the acpi code to be loaded... i know it's > supported, as the linux code worked just fine (as per my previous > email). but i really dont want to use linux, so i'll be trying 7 soon > i think A fresh start in -acpi might still find something useful for 6-STABLE, hopefully I won't languish as badly as 5 did after 6 was released :) but yes I'll be trying 7 now there may be a coherent set of ports/packages. > "Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it." > George Santayana Which is a real bummer when you forget yesterday ..
