Hi all,
What are you using to monitor all those component temperatures? I have an R60, 2.0 Duo, 2 Gig, 100 7200HD, BT, g, etc

I don't bother monitoring temperatures. I can tell if the machine gets warm (it normally runs cool). It never overheats. So if your machine is not overheating (and it should not, if operating properly), then you should not need to monitor.

Use tpfancontrol to monitor multiple temps (except HD), and to control the fan speed.

Use mobmeter to monitor HD and/or CPU temps and frequency. If tpfancontrol is running, you cannot use mobmeter to monitor CPU, only HD.

Many thanks - always good to know the options, although the R60 is completely silent and doesn't seem to get than barely detectably warm underneath. The previous R40 got hotter.
