      Hi all,

      I'm trying to check the temperature on a PCEngines APU running pfSense 2.2.6.

      I've looked at https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=52301.msg521663#msg521663 , but sysctl hw.acpi.thermal just returns

      sysctl: unknown oid 'hw.acpi.thermal': No such file or directory

      I tried to install mbmon from http://dbknickerbocker.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/adding-cpu-temperature-monitoring-to.html but it looks like 2.2 moved from pkg_add to pkg.

      Any advice would be much appreciated - thanks!

        System > Advanced, Misc tab, pick the AMD option for the temperature hardware, save.

          Tried this option on my new APU2 HW and pfSense 2.3 with no success. There is no indication of temperatures at all… Is this a known problem in 2.3?

            Per @cmb, Currently not in 2.3 but is coming…
