On the temp issue -- that is processor dependent. 45 degrees can be hot on some while 110 degrees is OK on some P3/AMD XP class chips. All chip manufacturers have the allowable temps listed for their processors and many web sites have a summary of this info -- google is your friend.
With a clean laptop and armed with the manufacturers allowable temp information -- you will then be in a position to answer your own question.
Part of it yes but not the part about "how do I set the trip temp"? And I suspect that the max temp is not merely about the chip but about the motherboard. Sadly I don't seem to be able to determine the 'name/number' of the motherboard. Too many things it _might_ be. -- Faith is to believe what you do not yet see; the reward for this faith is to see what you believe. -- St. Augustine Quotes -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
