Temperature monitoring
Hi all,
Does anyone have any working temperature monitors for OSx86? I've tried iStat menus, Temperature Monitor, and one other (forgot the name), and none of them detect CPU temps, only SMART hard drive temps.
I've been running VoodooPower (which I like) but after a couple of days of running, when load is high and/or graphics used intensively it KPs with a zalloc did gc, followed by an npvhash=4095. I've tried various workarounds (TState Control = false) to no avail.
Right now, I can't afford crashes (and lost work), so I've disabled VP, but of course the machine runs hot. I'd like to keep an eye on the temps, and don't feel like writing a temp sensor monitor right now.
I'd also prefer something with source, and/or free
Thanks!
