I don't actually have ipmi_smb. I think that I'd need to download and
build openipmi to get that driver. I'm trying out the intel server
management 8.40 tools right now to see if they'll install on ubuntu
gutsy 32bit.
I've thought about trying the ipmi_smb driver but I've only got a
limited amount of time and it might take hours to get all of that
stuff built, configured and tested.
