I have a couple boxes where the thermal acpi driver gives this: bran:~> sensors acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +26.8°C (crit = +100.0°C) bran:~> acpi -t No support for device type: battery Thermal 1: ok, 27.0 degrees C It stays _always_ the same, there is no difference if I run some number crunchin, or even if one of them is overclocked from 2.8 to 3.0 GHz. They are 1U supermicro boxes, ventilation is good, but I don't trust this measures... It looks like the system is using some kind of 'generic' acpi TZ driver, but as I'm used to good-ol' sensors modules, I don't know where to look. Previously I used the w83627hf module from sensors.
