Oh, I see. In the meantime, I found some information about resetting the SMU (by pressing a button on the motherboard), and so far the system seems to be running ok, even with buildkernel going on. The a0/a1 sensors indicate ~50C and they were never more than 5C apart (I'm running a script that shows them from sysctl every 10 seconds). Maybe it was as simple as that... Keeping fingers crossed. Just a moment ago "svn checkout" of /usr/ports finished succesfully---an operation that would previously invariably lead to a hang, so I'm beginning to be optimistic. :) Thanks! -Krzysztof
