Indeed, in4 is Vdimm.  I bumped the value in the BIOS up to 2.70V and 
sensors now reports in4 at 2.72V.  

Interestingly  enough, in the process of confirming the relation of the 
in4 setting, I discovered a bug in the BIOS:  After testing, I returned 
the Vdimm value in the BIOS to default (2.60V).  After the boot, Sensors 
then reported in4 still at 2.72V.  I rebooted back into the BIOS, and 
its own monitoring display confirmed the same value for Vdimm.  I 
switched the Vdimm setting from default to a manual setting of 2.60V.  
Sensors again reports 2.72V,  and rebooting again confirms this in the 
BIOS reading.  I'll check later on after a cold boot, if things are 
different.  Anyways, I digress.

Interesting, I'm noticing the limits for temp1 are fluctuating on their 
own. For example,

$ sensors
lm90-i2c-0-4c
Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000

M/B Temp:    +38?C  (low  =    +0?C, high =   +70?C)
CPU Temp:  +55.9?C  (low  =  +0.0?C, high = +70.0?C)
M/B Crit:    +85?C  (hyst =   +75?C)
CPU Crit:    +85?C  (hyst =   +75?C)

Haven't tried the patch yet - been busy tracking down some other 
problems.   Will probably hold off till 2.6.15.1 comes out and then 
manually make the changes then.

There is a "SmartDoc Anti-Burn Shield" Menu in my BIOS that can be seen 
here: http://www.silentpcreview.com/files/images/soltek3901/Fan-control.jpg
However, I just noticed that the user adjustable "Shutdown Temperature" 
in the BIOS version I'm running has been removed (although , as 
illustrated in the pic above, it was available in earlier revisions of 
the BIOS!).  Anyways, when I had a look at my BIOS settings,  I recorded 
the following:

CPU Internal Temp.    43C
CPU External Temp   51C
System Temp                 41C
Fan1 Speed                  1394 RPM
Fan2 Speed                  1360RPM
Vcore                             1.40V
+1.5V                              1.50V
+3.3V                              3.29V
VDIMM                         2.59V       ....... although, of course, 
its now at 2.72V, as described above
+5V                                 5.04V
VBAT                              3.29V
5VSB                              4.96V

Smart Fan1 Temperature 60C
Fan1 Tolerance Value [1]
Smart Fan2 Temperature 45C
Fan2 Tolerance Value [1]

- Interesting that there is no +12V reading
- Of course, only the bottom Smart Fan stuff is user adjustable

In the " Frequency / Voltage Control " BIOS menu, there are relevant 
entries for:

CPU Vcore Select
AGP Voltage Select
DIMM Voltage Select

All of which I have set on "Default"


Let me know if you need anything else, or clarification of anything.

Thanks, Steven
