What's wrong with 70C? :-) That's still within spec. Does the board
have a CPU fan?

There is no info available for Esther from VIA. Or I couldn't find it.

Can you please send the output of 'grep ""
/sys/devices/platform/vt1211*/*' and the full output of 'sensors'?

VIA is known to not use the fan control feature of the VT1211 on its
EPIA boards. You might be out of luck. But send the requested info and
we'll go from there.
