I got messages saying that the machine was running hot on several occasions. The first time, I shut down the machine, check thed the temp in the BIOS (68 degrees C) and then proceeded to clean out the CPU fan, and dusted teh rest of the machine. The second time I just restarted to the BIOS to check the temp again myself: 74 degrees C Both these temps are supposed to be within the okay range of my Intel Celeron running at 2.8 GHz. Please advise on what could be causing this, the message (pasted below) are very unsettling. ====================================================== Oct 25 01:38:00 Watson kernel: CPU0: Temperature above threshold Oct 25 01:38:00 Watson kernel: CPU0: Running in modulated clock mode Oct 25 01:38:03 Watson ntpd[2569]: kernel time sync enabled 0001 Oct 25 01:38:05 Watson kernel: CPU0: Temperature above threshold Oct 25 01:38:05 Watson kernel: CPU0: Running in modulated clock mode Oct 25 01:38:10 Watson kernel: CPU0: Temperature above threshold Oct 25 01:38:10 Watson kernel: CPU0: Running in modulated clock mode Oct 25 01:38:15 Watson kernel: CPU0: Temperature above threshold Oct 25 01:38:15 Watson kernel: CPU0: Running in modulated clock mode Oct 25 01:38:20 Watson kernel: CPU0: Temperature/speed normal Oct 25 01:38:25 Watson kernel: CPU0: Temperature above threshold ====================================================== --
UPDATE This all occurs when the machine is under load. It happened last when I was doing a sha1sum of the FC6 DVD imames. The case has been wide open for weeks now. The room isn't warm either. But lm_sensors did show the CPU at 80 degrees C whehn the messages showed up.
