Yup, that's the one.

The sysctl API changed between NetBSD 2.0 and -current if I remember 
correctly.

Cool :)
Actually I'm surprised it works with 2.0.

I usually have the CPU limit set to 60C, this makes the fan spin a lot 
( but usually at low speed ) but keeps my iBook at a much more 
comfortable temperature. Hopefully someone will get power saving to 
work with this kind of G4s so it would actually cool down when idle.

have fun
