But there is no more values in my BIOS. I mean more samples for a given values. Often monitored values oscillate between two or three values. On some systems you have to leave and re-enter the monitoring screen in the BIOS to get new values, but most of them update the values every second automatically. > > This is simply not possible.

Is it right? Our code doesn't do this, no. Your Linux distribution, maybe, but this is the first time I hear of this. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/wishlist.html _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
