Hello everybody,

I own a Turion64 X2 1.8Ghz and I have my k8 sensor module for getting CPU 
temperatures.
I wanna ask if these temperatures looks OK to you.

Temperatures while compiling stuff with both cores @ 1.8Ghz and 100% usage:
# cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:18.3/temp1_input
67000
# cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:18.3/temp3_input
73000

Temperatures while idle:
# cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:18.3/temp1_input
46000
# cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:18.3/temp3_input
53000

This is a laptop with a tiny fan and 53º C while processor is idle is 
understandable since cooler is on passive mode
most of time. But 73º C looks way too much for me.

Also my ACPI doesn't provide me any thermal information and doing so I have no
processor trip_points to get system rebooted or processor throttled if 
temperature is too high.

Also when booting linux I get this:
ACPI Exception (thermal-0311): AE_BUFFER_OVERFLOW, No critical threshold 
[20070126]

I made a simple daemon to scale cpu frequency in case temperature exceeds a 
predefined threshold.
Although my question is if these temperatures looks correct and I should trust 
them.

My room temperature is 21º C.
