[TEMPERATURE] - AMD Sempron, no CPU temperature (throttling control = no).

Hello,

I have a new MSI FSR Delta (VIA_KT880) and AMD Sempron 2600+, and now after
loading _processor_ module I do not have CPU temperature in /proc/,
and _thermal_ module is not working.

Question:
1. Is this an ACPI fault that my CPU is not compatible in kernel?

Result from /proc/:
./proc/acpi/processor/CPU1. # v

Now I have "throttling control" with issue "no", so ACPI is an author of that
mistake?

Take care.

P.S. I am using setpci to cool my CPU. Like this:

.~. $ cat /etc/conf.d/local.start | grep -v ^# | grep setpci
setpci -H1 -s 0:0.0 82=$(printf %x $((0x$(setpci -H1 -s 0:0.0 82) | 0x80)))
setpci -H1 -s 0:0.0 85=$(printf %x $((0x$(setpci -H1 -s 0:0.0 85) | 0x02)))
.~. $
