Hi I just found another issue that is rather worrying
When i tried compiling my kernel the temperature run up to 90 degs
On my previous laptop Acer Aspire 4520G using the TL-60 Processor it went up
to a maximium of 70 deg
Now on my new RM-72 Turion It went up to 90 deg I am afraid that even if the
heat didn't burn up my processor it will burn up my other components as
well8-O
I am really worried
