I tried to monitor CPU temp with mbmon, which shows a very big value in COU temperature: doroot@panix:~# mbmon -c 1 Temp.= 42.0, 201.0, 39.0; Rot.= 3245, 0, 0 Vcore = 1.50, 1.81; Volt. = 3.30, 5.08, 11.31, -11.74, -1.66 Also, healthdc shows: localhost 186.0 0.0 0.0 5314 17307 0000 1.49 2.49 1.62 5.42 0.00 -10.84 0.00 and lmmon -i shows: Motherboard Temp Voltages 186C / 366F / 459K Vcore1: +1.469V Vcore2: +1.766V Fan Speeds + 3.3V: +3.219V + 5.0V: +4.932V 1: 10629rpm +12.0V: +11.750V 2: 33750rpm -12.0V: -13.188V 3: 16071rpm - 5.0V: -1.800V So i dont have any idea how to assess the real CPU temperature. I am thinking of tuning down the BIOS to fail-safe settings, just as an extra measure. Apart from that, i have no clue how to solve the random crashes/segfaults problem. I also opened the case in order to get ventilated with fresh air from the room. Any hints would be welcome. P.S. Please include me in the reply, i am not subscribed to -questions. -- Achilleas Mantzios
