bsdhwmon seems to be Supermicro-specific:

[root at kabini1, /etc, 10:37:53am] 953 % which !$
which bsdhwmon
/usr/local/sbin/bsdhwmon
[root at kabini1, /etc, 10:37:57am] 954 % bsdhwmon --help
bsdhwmon: illegal option -- -
Usage: bsdhwmon [options]

Options:

   -J            JSON-formatted output
   -c            comma-delimited output
   -f DEVICE     use DEVICE as smb(4) device (default: /dev/smb0)
   -l            list supported motherboard ID strings
   -h            print this message
   -v            be verbose (show debugging output)

Your motherboard does not appear to be supported.  You can visit
http://bsdhwmon.koitsu.org/ to see if support for your motherboard
and/or system is under development.
