I will have to get lm_sensors setup before I can let you know that.
It has been on my list to do, but this weird issue had me perplexed for
most of today.

It would appear to be a bug in the nvidia driver, I'm not sure I can roll

not playing nicely with the newer versions of X11.

It's always something isn't it? :)

Thanks again, I'll update with what I find with lm_sensors.
