Yay! Fedora have packaged version 2.10.4 of lm_sensors, so I can (with the aid of a 2.6.22 series kernel) now see the CPU temperatures on my Mac Mini. On to some testing...
Loading each core with cpuburn-in, the temp on core 0 gets up to 80°C (that's 176°F, for those still in the dark ages) after a minute or so.
That's pretty hot.
The system fan (the only fan in the box) goes from a very leisurely 1500rpm to an almost as leisurely 2000rpm during this time, and the temp on core 0 stabilises at pretty much exactly 80°C. Core 1 only ever gets up to 65°C (149°F), though. Removing the load causes the temps to drop very fast.
I've updated the kernel .config for 2.6.22(.1) in case anyone's interested.
