Maybe this? - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_Platform_Management_Interface There is a kernel interface (under power management I think) and I seem to remember some of my recent motherboards come with it. If you have a dell, look up iDRECV which does something similar. Its not only the cpu, but the motherboard you need to worry about. BillK
