I installed lm_sensors and saw that at rest my temp was generally 40C (that's with powersave enabled). When I compiled the temp would go up to 75C...I think the highest I ever got it was 77C.* A /little/ over 40 is too hot...
*For the Americans (like me) the easy way for C -> F is double it, subtract 10% and add 32. So the temps would be 104F, 167F and 171F. - -- Eric Martin PGP fingerprint = D1C4 086E DBB5 C18E 6FDA B215 6A25 7174 A941 3B9F -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH8phDdheOldgSlQgRAuKcAKDcYnv7PuepF5no3Z74on/6wYUfIACgvWXz ETwrpz+31+rq0tB4UqSWCMY= =0div -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [email protected] mailing list
