tranquil:~# sensors | tail | egrep 'CPU|Mobo'
CPU fan: 6308 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2)
Mobo Temp: +30.0°C (limit = +60°C, hysteresis = +50°C)
CPU Temp: +49°C (limit = +67°C, hysteresis = +60°C) (beep)

With kernel compile it goes to 52 degrees, which makes 3 degrees
difference between almost 100% idle and almost 0.0% idle.
This is with kernel 2.4.10-ac10 if it matters.
