Mbmon on ALIX 2d13

jaginus

Hi,

Three days ago just moved my pfsense from an old P-II to an ALIX 2d13 with a 2.5' HDD with full sucess (thanks again MoBo)…. except for mbmon.

I'm trying to get system info from mbmon (after installing phpsysinfo), and all I get -regarding mbmon data- from the phpsysinfo page (http://192.168.1.1/phpsysinfo/) is:

File:common_functions.php
Line:213
Command:/usr/local/bin/mbmon

Message:No Hardware Monitor found!!
InitMBInfo: Unknown error: 0
Return value: 1

Then I tried to execute mbmon from the command line and got this (-A: for probing all methods, all chips, and setting an extra sensor):

mbmon -A

InitMBInfo: Unknown error: 0
This program needs "setuid root"!!

su

mbmon -A

InitMBInfo: Unknown error: 0
This program needs "setuid root"!!

whoami

root

mbmon

No Hardware Monitor found!!
InitMBInfo: Unknown error: 0

Am I doing something wrong ?.

I also have another ALIX (2d3) running Voyager Linux which reads CPU temperature from the i2c bus, but couldn't find such a capacity from pfsense's FreeBSD.

Do you know if mbmon has the ability to read status data from ALIX ? Any recomendation ? ???

Thanks for the help ;)
