One is a Dell Poweredge 2650. 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?
