hi misc@, i'm working on getting the sensors' output into some nice graphs; however, having a look at their output now and then, i get some strange values:
hw.sensors.acpitz0.temp0=40.05 degC (zone temperature) hw.sensors.it0.temp0=28.00 degC hw.sensors.it0.temp1=37.00 degC hw.sensors.it0.temp2=25.00 degC hw.sensors.it0.fan0=10546 RPM (here the fan is obviously much too fast; occasionally i see >25.000RPM) seconds later: hw.sensors.acpitz0.temp0=40.05 degC (zone temperature) hw.sensors.it0.temp0=7.00 degC hw.sensors.it0.temp1=34.00 degC hw.sensors.it0.temp2=24.00 degC hw.sensors.it0.fan0=2636 RPM (there temp0 is far too low; fan is okay) dmesg below; this machine idles around almost all of its time, doing some mail server stuff for a small site -- that's all. some hints (or a single, problem-solving one ;) very much appreciated. thanks, timo ps: this happens running very recent -current from yesterday as well as running 4.1-RELEASE... --- OpenBSD 4.1-current (GENERIC) #0: Thu Jul 5 20:44:48 CEST 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC real mem = 1055444992 (1006MB) avail mem = 1013592064 (966MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.3 @ 0xf0000 (70 entries) bios0: ASUSTek Computer INC.
