Hi Durga,

sorry, you lost me. What do you mean with "there" ? If it is what coretemp reports,
it is just a wild guess, unless you or Jean know better from some document.

Usually it is in the device datasheet / specification or the device thermal guide
if it exists. I don't think there is a single web site with all the information,
or at least I don't know one. Problem is that no such documentation seems to exist,
at least not in public, for the Z2460 (or CE4100, for that matter). Only reason
for mentioning CE4100 is that someone suggested a patch for it a couple of years ago,
but it went nowhere, presumably since tjmax (supposedly 110 C) was never confirmed,
nor are there well defined means to detect it.

Typo, sorry.
