That seems quite high to me. With an uptime of a shade under 17 days, during normal use and with [EMAIL PROTECTED] running since 11.5 CPU-days (says top), /proc/acpi reports 49 degrees Celsius at the CPU. My system, built around an Athlon 64 3000+, has a critical trip (shutdown) temperature of 70 C and I have never hit that level. I have not checked the CPU temperature during lengthy compilations however, but considering that CPU utilization stays close to 100% due to [EMAIL PROTECTED], it is probably about the same. I would consider anything above 60 C as certainly out of the ordinary and worth investigating. Does the motherboard BIOS setup show the same temperature as Linux? - -- Michael Kjörling, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://michael.kjorling.com/ * ASCII Ribbon Campaign: Against HTML Mail, Proprietary Attachments * * .....
