But when I got your message last night, I figured that I'd try it at home on a system running an MSI motherboard (I can't remember what model, dang it) running an AMD Athlon XP 2100+. Same deal. If you know of a way that I can find the motherboard model remotely, I'll check (I couldn't find anything in /proc). Are you using lm_sensors with RHEL?
