hello, i'm a bit confused as to why lm_sensors reports a much different cpu temperature reading than my bios (i.e. when i startup my computer, enter the bios setup screen and go to pc health status). lm_sensors reports roughly 20 degrees (C) cooler. i'm using lm_sensors-2.8.6-1.
thanks for the help.
At a guess...
When you start up your computer, your CPU isn't really doing an awful lot.
The temperature can change rapidly once its starts drawing power, especially after you boot the OS, it will have done quite a lot in the last few minutes there..
I could be wrong of course..
Duh.. hang on.. I didn't read that.. lm_sensors is cooler than bios..
humm.. no idea.. sorry :)
