Temperature control on AMD?

Hey...

We have many programs to control temperature on intel coreduo processors, but I have not found a single one which measures the temperature on my AMD Turion processor correctly, or which can see the correct speed of the fans in OSX...

Do you guys have any suggestions?

I've been using the widget iStat Pro for a while now on both my AMD machine and my Macbook. While the fan speed isn't registered on my AMD machine, the Temperature readouts are spot on with what my BIOS tells me. As for with my Macbook, I'm pretty sure they match up because I've watched the fan speed while I can hear them spinning up and then slowing down and the speeds match up with it.

I'm on an athlon64+asus a8n-sli and it only shows my disks temp. Any idea? perhaps it's some kext or bios setting.

Yes, itīs the same here... iStat Pro only reports the temperature for my internal harddisk.
Nothing on the CPU.
Nothing on the fans...

Same here, and I'd really like to know my CPU temp, as it's been overheating off and on lately for no explicable reason. :\
