It would be nice to have the OS X data for temperature vs fan speed to compare. Nicolas I've looked over the apple SMC code to try and figure out which temperature monitor is which but all I can see is that you read them out by some keys:
"TB0T", "TC0D", "TC0P", "Th0H", "Ts0P", "Th1H", "Ts1P", NULL "TC0D", "TC0P" Do you have any idea what these keys match to? Where did you get them? Is there any graphical tool that will print out the temperatures and fan speed in Linux? I should note that the data in the plot in my previous plot was taken when I was running Beryl/Xgl and doing a lot of stuff. It might be good to compare an idle system in text mode, and idle system using fglrx, an idle system using vesa and maybe an idle system with a core duo using fglrx with powerplay. By the way, anyone tried out 8.35.5 yet? Its hard for me to try it because I'm using 2.6.20 which it doesn't support. cheers, Sheer p.s. sorry for the flood of emails today On 3/29/07, Kai Weber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > * Nicolas Boichat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > I'm not saying there is no black magic in SMC, after all, why not.
