Convalesence

I’m so proud. Groove made it though the night with no bizarre kernel errors echoed to the console. A few more days of this and we might be in the clear.

The lm_sensors modules seem to be a bit off for this mainboard:

88C? I don’t think so.

Twiddle with the temp_type for the it87, and it gets curiouser and curiouser:

-55C? I don’t think so.

BIOS reports that the temp is ~33C, which makes me think that if I have the time to write a script to modprobe it87 with temp_type=0x00-0xff and test the results, I might get accurate data.
