Another point to assert that your problem is simply one of calibration is when you observe instantly on boot the CPU temperature is 26F hotter. There is too much thermal mass in your CPU and heatsink for it to rise 26F as quickly as you seem to indicate. You need one of the digital indoor/outdoor thermometers available at Radio Shack, K-Mart, Wal-Mart, etc. Paid $15 last time. Forgot it that one had max/min memory or not. Anyhow, put the outdoor probe on your heatsink and get a 2nd opinion. When this thermometer doesn't read significantly different between Linux and FreeBSD you can be assured there is a only calibration problem. Those digital indoor/outdoor thermometers are great. Made a 1000 mile road trip this past week. Thru the outdoor probe out a window. Sure was nice to know when I entered freezing conditions. Sure was miserable to know when I bought gas Tuesday it was 21F out. Now I need a wind speed meter as I'm certain it was blowing 30 MPH but have no way of proving it. Would also be nice to know what the windspeed is over the car as I'm also pretty sure I drove into a headwind the 2nd 500 miles. BTW: I'd be interested in a CPU temerature monitoring program for my Asus P2B-S. Asus uses a termistor, not the LM part. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
