When there is a large snapshot download, it does a long "checking file conflicts" before installing. I have an issue during that "checking" process, after a while my system starts bleeping randomly as if its in pain - does anyone know if i can do anything about it?
A process like that can load a CPU heavily. Check your BIOS/firmware for an overheat warning beep and note the temperature setting. Then check CPU temp when encountering the beep. As a precaution, ensure that your CPU cooler is clean and its fan working.
Thanks Felix. I'll give that a go, i'll look for a widget that could show the temp so i can monitor it during the bleeps
just install sensors, configure and do: while : ; do date ; sensors -f | grep Core ; echo ; sleep 30; done will print individual cpu temps every 30 seconds with the date/time header and blank line at the end, until you stop it or system borks. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
