Dear Jean, I have just checked out your last suggestion in the message below - it works! Very many thanks for all your help. I have learned a great deal about how the sensors package works over this problem, thanks to your guidance. Re your remark about Asus chips in your first message - when I bought the board I basically had no criterion to choose between Asus and Abit, which were the two which seemed most attractive. If I had realised how troublesome using the as99127f was going to be I would have gone the other way! You only find these things out when you actually buy a piece of kit - at that time the board was too new for there to be anything relevant on the sensors support page. Next time I buy I may go to a Xeon cpu (for the sake of the large memory support on Xeon motherboards) or if the IA64/AMD 64 bit processors look attractive in both specification and price I may go that way - I expect a whole new can of worms then! We will of course be on 2.6.x kernels by then. Anyway, very many thanks for all your help. I suppose I would have been able to sort this out if I had known more about systems, but regrettably I don't, my interests being in large numerical applications. All the very best, Richard James.
