thermal monitors on BP6 under Linux, anyone got them working?

I was trying to get the thermal sensors on my BP6 to work under linux. I installed the lm_sensors package with RedHat 7. I just can't seem to figure out what to do to get BP6mon to work. Anyone know how to do it, or if there is another program that would allow me to monitor temperatures of my 2 CPUs?

Thanks!

 
Nope. I tried to get it working on a Supermicro S2DGE, but everytime I fired it up it tripped to CPU overheat alarms. Worse the only way to fix it was to reboot the machine. Other than that it worked.

I'd already pissed around with it for a couple of hours at that point and "shelved" the project for a later date.
 
you mean the winbond chip on the mo/bo?I have a bp6 and I dont recall it having a termal sensor,other than the cmos winbond info.
 

I mean like the equivalent of running Motherboard Monitor, but under Linux. I want to be able to read out the temps while I am in the OS.
