Yes, it is a good idea to use lm-sensors for that. You could use sensord to log the values, for example. You may want to decrease the logging interval to say 1 minute, instead of the default 5 minutes, to increase your chances to catch the problematic conditions (if that's really what your problem is.) -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
