hmmm ... my system is at 33 case and 34-35 cpu temperature (?C) when it is
idle ... this are not so bad temperatures ... it has temperature
controlled fans which only reach their maximum spin at around 40-45 ... so
the system is not so good coold when it is cooler but produce lesser noise
...

yes ... the case temp should not go over 40?C but the cpu  is fine if it
is under 45-50?C under load.

the lm_sensors package is realy fine ... it was a realy usfull tool when i
was tweaking on this patch ...
