5This program displays information gathered from a motherboard
6power management controller (e.g. LM78/79). Displayed values
7include fan speeds, motherboard temperature, and various
8voltages. By default it cycles once per second using a curses-
9based display.

11Currently, the /dev/smb0 interface is only supported in FreeBSD
124.0-CURRENT and 3.3-STABLE (after 01 November 1999); however,
13the /dev/io interface may work with many motherboards in FreeBSD
143.x and some non-LM78/79 motherboards.
