Something is overheating inside your box because of dust build up or your
power supply is failing.

Subject: Random Hanging/Rebooting Problems

I apologize for filling up a lot of mail boxes, but I need some help, and I
have no idea of where to look for answers but here.

My problem is this : every once in a while, the computer hangs for a minute
or two, then reboots.  At one point, it felt like it had something to do
with the APM, so I disabled that in the BIOS.  That did not help.  I have
been methodically going through the daemons I had loaded and disabling
them, but to no avail.

I know it's not a load issue.  The peak load shown is 0.31, at 10:09 this
morning.  Since that peak, the computer has reset itself four times, each
time with a 1 minute load average of 0.00, (unknown), 0.04, and 0.01,
respectively.  The (unknown) load is due to a reset that occured just over
four minutes after a previous one, where no load average was even
retrieved.  Those numbers were taken every minute, using the minute
average, in an attempt to locate the problem.

The resets occured at 10:43, 10:47, 11:05, and 11:50, showing a near random
fashion of rebooting.  I am including a list of installed packages (in
hopes that someone might know if a package is causing the reboot), as well
as the usual UNAME and DMESG data, along with my RC.CONF.  At one point,
Gnome was causing major X crashes, but that has been re-installed, and now
I know that X is not causing the problem.  If someone out there knows what
is happening, please, by all means, help!
