FreeBSD was added only recently to this machine. I usally start 2 seti sessions when I'm done for the day on this machine. Under Linux it never..ever reached even 100F.(still the same) That's whats so baffling about this.(I only overclocked it very recently out of curiosity) Tommorow I am going to run the programs Peter suggested. On the sessions between Linux and FreeBSD I usually shut it off for a moment the temperatures took a while to stabilize it was not immediately cool as someone questioned. I want to stress it again this is only with the SMP kernel. The standard kernels do indeed run cool. -- Ted Sikora Jtl Development Group tsikora@powerusersbbs.com http://powerusersbbs.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
