Well... I think I improved the fanctl.c (tools) program (no more need to 
fix any "resetboost") by adding a PID (don't know the english name) 
whitch makes an integration of the error (difference between the command 
and the temperature) in only 5 lines.

I also tink we can switch completely the fan off when not it's needed 
(at least in winter ;). And if anybody knows how to shut the harddrive 
down when not needed, it could be a good idea to have sever as silent as 
possible.

Another thing, I created an account on SF but I can not log into the CVS 
tree... (don't forget I'm a beginner ;). The server says "permission 
denied". Is that normal?

Bye

Cyril
