Any help/pointers would be great.
Bah. Also, the reason I started looking into this is that I believe, cpu cooling is busted. When I compile anything with more -j values, box shuts down. I don't see any error on console or /var/log/messages but I did see the temperature going up to dev.cpu.0.temperature: 86.0C right before it shutdown. I'll probably reapply the thermal paste and see. cheers, Hiren
