Description Valentin Davydov 2009-07-27 12:50:01 UTC
According to src/UPDATING:

20090521:
        The k8temp(4) driver has been renamed to amdtemp(4) since               
        support for K10 and K11 CPU families was added.

However, this change was not reflected in the manual page. This leads to misunderstanding and frustration of users which are not reading UPDATING regularly.

Fix: Try to apply the attached patch (it is untested!!!) and rebuild/reinstall in src/share/man/man4.

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: On a fresh RELENG_7 (newer than 20090521) say "man amdtemp" or as root "kldload
k8temp". You'll get an error in both cases.

That was fixed in rev. 189773 (confirmed via email to rpaulo).  
Anyway, thanks for filing this PR.
