This is not a fink-related question (I apologize), but maybe someone has had a similar problem and can give me some guidance.
After having used my G4 15 inch Powerbook (1.5 Ghz) for more than 6 months, it suddenly started going to sleep and I can't get it to wake up until at least 1/2 hour has passed, but it then gives me just enough time to do a shutdown. After rebooting, it will work for maybe 15-20 minutes, and then go to sleep again. The var/log/system.log file states: "power management received emergency overtemp signal. Going to sleep" However, I've been monitoring the temperature of the processor/controller bottom, and I've never seen it go beyond ~50 degrees, and it never feels as hot as I've seen it get like when I'm doing some heavy processing. I have changed nothing recently; no new software, no difference in the way I'm working, etc. I'm aware that it may be a hardware issue and may have to send it in for service, but I don't want to have to do this without knowing what I'm up against. Thanks, Gloria. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
