Re: [newbie] Ok you got me started
To jump in here , I have had problems with LM_sensors in 8.2 as well. in 8.0 it works perfectly. under 8.2 only one of the sensors is seen, and it registers the a cpu temp of 127 degrees C. quite silly and wrong. I can make it read a correct value, but the value never changes. I would like to have this working properly, so I can move past 8.0 I have this setup on a Epox 8Kta3 Pro MB/ 1 gig athlon, 512 mg ram, three HDs and 32mg TnT video card ( not that that matters here ) Any observations or advice for me too would be nice Thanks !!! -- Mike McNeese currently running Mandrake versions 8.0 and 8.2 Linux registered user # 248955 If obstacles are all we see, then we've lost sight of our goal!

My 1.4 Tbird is factory unlocked, so rather than run it at 10.5x133, I can set it to 11.5x135 (1553mhz). You'll be in the XP 2200+ ++ range, solid as a rock ;~ post displayed 1788mhz!! XP 2200+ runs at 1767mhz, almost equals the performance of a P4 at 2.5 Ghz. Just to be clear here, I advocated tryin up to 143mhz, but not to neccesarilly run at that speed. Now that you know it's stable at 143, run it at around 140. That'll give you 1750mhz (nearly a 2200+ ;) and your PCI will be close at 35mhz.
