FakeSMC_SMMSensors.kext is a new FakeSMC sensor plugin which uses System Management Mode to obtain sensor information.
The idea is derived from the dell-smm-hwmon driver in Linux, it allows reading fan settings, speeds and temperature sensor values.
Additionally it could be used to control fan speeds in the system as well (though currently not implemented in usermode).
For those wanting to try it on Dell based systems, the code can be found here:

Ideally this should be working on most Dell laptops as well as desktops for monitoring purposes with the included HWMonitor application.
@RehabMan,
Not sure if this post is in the right forum category, desktop doesn't have a category matching either.
Feel free to move it.
