Anybody here use Linux?

I am a GNU/Linux user and was woundering if anybody here knew of any
Overclocking apps that would run in Linux?

I have a nForce 2 Motherboard with a AMD XP 1800+ & a Geforce FX 5200

I guess by overclocking apps you mean a temp/fan monitors? There is
software called lm_sensors which does that quite nicely and you can
interface the data to a nice graphical monitor like gkrellm.

I run a NF7S M/B with XP2500 overclocked to XP3200 under Mandrake
Linux 9.2. All Linux applications work wonderfully.

There is nvclock to overclock your graphics but the support for the FX
card is experimental, and you will have to get it from the cvs at the
moment:-

http://www.linuxhardware.org/nvclock/

I have not tried it yet as i will be upgrading this week to Suse 9.1 so
do beware what the author says on the web page.

Never looked. Don't need any. Do it in the bios.
