The following patch fixes the the detection of the on-die temp sensor for Atom E6xx CPUs (and possibly other Atom CPUs). The code was only matching processors where the model began with "Intel" but this Atom CPU model begins with "Genuine Intel" so I've updated the logic to match.
Now I get: # sysctl hw hw.machine=amd64 hw.model=Genuine Intel(R) CPU @ 1.60GHz hw.ncpu=2 hw.byteorder=1234 hw.pagesize=4096 hw.disknames=sd0:937db626fa67a9f0 hw.diskcount=1 hw.sensors.cpu0.temp0=66.00 degC hw.sensors.cpu1.temp0=66.00 degC hw.cpuspeed=600 hw.setperf=0 hw.physmem=2146304000 hw.usermem=2146287616 hw.ncpufound=2 hw.allowpowerdown=1 This only seems to affect the amd64 port, I can't find similar logic in the i386 port.
