      Hi,

      in some other thread I found a nice Soekris board setup guide with an important hint that the shown CPU core temperature is wrong in FreeBSD because CPU core is not recognized and therefore max temperature of 100°C is assumend (whew … we were wondering how hot it was...)

      http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Soekris_6501_USB_Flash_installation#CPU_Temperature

      the first modification with return=true is not needed anymore for pfSense 2.1
      But I saw that also the widget shows wrong temperature...

      So here the patch for both functions ready for copy&paste into patches module ;)
