My only box with sensors is my new Athlon with Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe AM2. I had to use Etch when it was testing since Sarge wouldn't boot it. Alas, I don't know if a 2.6.16 kernel would have found the sensors but the .18 does not. OTOH, I have all my fans controlled by the MB and a smart PSU (CoolerMaster iGreen 600). When the fans (all 8 case fans) go into high gear, I can hear them from anywhere in the house. Beats a little 'beep' from sensord :) Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
