Also
fetch www.fishercroft.plus.com/messages.gz

will get bits of /var/log/messages with the normal startup messages and 
the output of

(sorry bad wrapping)

The two cpu temps come from coretemp.ko module.

While this was running I changed the temp with burnK7 and an icepack :). 
It's clear that the messages do correspond to changes of state but there 
are further triggers that I am not watching.
