Hi,

I've set up a RH 9 system at home.  It's my first Linux system but I'm
an old UNIX admin.  One of the things I've been setting up is a system
to monitor various system resources.  I've been playing around with
something I had used at work on my Solaris systems called Orca. (You can
see it at http://www.orcaware.com/orca).  It's normally meant for
Solaris, but someone contributed a data gatherer for Linux that pulls a
lot of stuff out of /proc.  Orca then takes this data, stores it in a
database of sorts and produces web pages with hourly, daily, weekly,
monthly, quarterly and yearly graphs.  It watches network traffic,
memory and swap usage, disk activity, disk space usage and other things.

One thing I'd like to see about adding to it is a monitor for the
motherboard and cpu temperatures and voltages and fan speeds.  The
motherboard is an ASUS A7V8X and under windows, there is a utility to
monitor these items.  But, how can I get to these data from Linux?  I
searched through the /proc file system and its man page.  I looked on
the Asus web site but saw nothing for Linux.

Does anyone know of any packages that can pull this data off the
motherboard or can point me in another direction to look?

Thanks for any info.

Charlie Dennett
