Hmm, I wonder if AIX uses this - the 300MHz 604e here remains remarkably cool ( just a tiny heatsink ).
But this reminds me of something else - NetBSD can measure the temperature of the G3 in my S900 but not of the G4 in my iBook - is there no thermal sensor in a G4? Or is the interface different?

have fun
