I'm not sure if this query should be directed to comp.lang.python or comp.os.linux.misc so I intend to post it to both with apologies if it's inappropriate on either.
I have a small python utility which I wrote myself and which crawls through a directory comparing all possible pairs of files. Under Windows it works fine, while the same code under Linux (Fedora Core 3) works for a while then starts continuously throwing up the following message Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at [date/time] localhost kernel: CPU1: Temperature above threshold While the code is continues to work, it is greatly slowed by these constant messages, and of ourse I am left wondering if my computer is about to explode! Is it really true that the code causes overheating under Linux and not under Windows? Or does Windows ignore the problem (and so am I risking damage by running the code)? Or are the Linux messages spurious, and if so how can I suppress them and ensure they do not slow the running of the code? Grateful for any help - preferably not too technical.
