Duh, would have thought they might make that available pretty easily, = but good to know you figured it out. I previously had been using nvclock = to read it, but I think going through nouveau is nicer (and I know it's = pretty hot most of the time as nouveau is not that good on power = management as well, good things take time, after all). Keep up the good work! Robert Kaiser
