Hi Juraj,

It might be just wrong reading. The 178 C suggests that. 
It has to be much lower, for instance Athlon XP 2000+ is extremely hot and 
it's nominal temperature is 90 C. When it is ran as XP 1500+ the temperature 
is 65 C.

I guess you never used program "sensors" before. I would try it to see what it 
has to say. Be aware that some hardware support is not configured well. 
I had to change mine to fit specifications. Please see:
   /usr/share/doc/packages/sensors for documentation.

In /usr/share/doc/packages/ you can also find information on "powersave" 
and "acpid". The acpid is messenger that listen kernel events, and powersaved 
is performer it executes actions.
