GentooxThe original Xbox adaptation of Gentoo

New feature : New ''monitor'' tools

GentooxJust added "monitors" to the magic patch system. With these tools, you can change your xbox's fan speed and monitor system temperature!

Fanctl by ShALLaX (c)
This tool allows you to set the Xbox's fan speed.

Usage:
fanctl X - Set fan to X% speed (between 20%-100%)
Anything out of this range will set 20% and automatic (Xbox Default)

Numbers may be floored (i.e. 85% will go to 84%) because of the way the
Xbox's i2c works.

CPU temperature: 37 °C - 98 °F
Board temperature: 37 °C - 98 °F
Fan speed: 20%

My Xbox usually runs at 52°C, after 30 minutes at 100% fan speed, it was down to 32°C!

This is my first ever bit of proper C coding so let me know of any bugs - I think I did rather well for a first try! :D
