CPU temperature on TUSL2-C

[The Ghost]

Hello,

I am trying to find out the temperature of my CPU. After a whole night 
from dusk till dawn of searching the Web like a furious spider, I got 
the following results: it can be done via either ISA or SMB, with one of 
the ports: lmmon, healthd, consolehm or mbmon, and there are also few 
modules that are required in the kernel: smb, smbus, intpm, ichsmb 
(TUSL2-C has ICH so this is the one needed) and maybe also iic, iicsmb, 
iicbb and nfsmb (I have included them just in case). The ones my system 
reacted at was ichsmb (it finds my ICH) and smb (in creates a /dev/smb0 
device). It looks natural enough.

When I'm trying to use mbmon, it fails with:

PSYCHE:~> sudo mbmon
ioctl(smb0:writebyte): Device not configured

I wonder what that means... I think it should work fine with mbmon, but 
I can't fid the answer what this means.



All the other fail also, and mbmon -I does not work either:

PSYCHE:~> sudo mbmon -I
No ISA-IO HWM available!!
InitMBInfo: Unknown error: 0

PSYCHE:~> sudo lmmon
IOCTL: Device not configured

PSYCHE:~> sudo lmmon -i

Does anybody know what's the matter with TUSL2-C (I suspect it's a 
hardware-related problem after all) or what that line about "smb0 not 
configured" mean?

The hardware works fine (it displays my temperature well in BIOS Setup).
