The lmsensors package in etch seems to work perfectly w/o any downloads. Actually, I checked it and it seems it has been updated with the mods from tyan already. So, as debian users, you're in luck as usual! ripper:~$ sensors smsc47b397-isa-0480 Adapter: ISA adapter temp1: +33?C <-- cpu1 temp2: +33?C <-- cpu2 temp3: +29?C temp4: -128?C fan1: 1393 RPM <-- cpu1 fan fan2: 1348 RPM fan3: 1357 RPM fan4: 1428 RPM <-- cpu2 fan This is with 265s "basicall" idle. The CPUs (temp1 and 2) get as high as 43C when running for a while at 100%. [This is the ideal machine for compiling 800 java files several times a day ~:^) ] If you're seeing anything higher, then you need to triple check your fans and heat sink mounting.
