Here is cpuinfo. yesterday I sent the list the output of sensors and lspci and 
lsmod as requested by Chris. Apparently the E-mail was too long so I will 
post each output into it's own mail message with the appropriate subject. If 
there is a better way to do this let me know and I'll use that method next 
time. I'm not sure I can send attachments to the list so this will be my best 
bet until I hear otherwise.
