A quick Google suggests that model (g7-1365dx) is an AMD Llano proc, so I doubt "coretemp — device driver for Intel Core on-die digital thermal sensor" is going to he much help 8-} amdtemp(4) would be the possible choice. But I don't know whether it can handle Llano. >From the specs, it looks like it has a discrete graphics card as well as the integrated too. Since I'm pretty sure that combo isn't supported (and you're probably just running VESA anyway), the discrete is dead weight, and if it doesn't turn itself flat off (I don't know if it does or not), it may be contributing to heat problems. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
