Thanks for replying!

I've tried everything you mention here with no success:

The BIOS is pretty basic, just allows to select boot order, set the
date, and not much more than that. No sysctls also.

Some desktop machines have a knob that you can turn which controls the fan
speed.

In my experience only laptops come with a ACPI thermal subdevice.

Then, I guess that you've not used to Asus mainboards?

As a matter of fact I'm running a P5KPL-VM right now. No acpi_thermal sysctls
to be found. Of course I am running powerd.

I guess that my only option to check if the hardware has the feature will be
to get windows on it and see what happens.

Reading the manual is also an option. :-)

Have you ever seen a manual for "consumer gear" that includes the word
"FreeBSD" except (maybe) in the copyright notices?

It doesn't have to. Even if it just says "Use the windoze program foo to
control the fan speed", you know that it's possible.

Well, the manual is almost useless. There is a bios update, but it scares me a bit the fact that the readme.txt included is a bit crappy and mentions something about a realtek networking card....probably they included the wrong readme.
