13 | Start with "ls_sensors" and monitor CPU and motherboard temp.
14 +1 to that. I had a laptop that was doing the exact same thing. I
15 installed lm_sensors and saw that at rest my temp was generally 40C
16 (that's with powersave enabled). When I compiled the temp would go up
17 to 75C...I think the highest I ever got it was 77C.* A /little/ over 40
18 is too hot...

20 *For the Americans (like me) the easy way for C -> F is double it,
21 subtract 10% and add 32. So the temps would be 104F, 167F and 171F.
