Just FYI I have a small shell script that I run in cron.quarter-hourly/ to
check the CPU temp, and email if it raises above the set value. Handy to
tell
if a fan fails, or in this case too much load, etc hits the unit and the
temperature goes skyward. Follow my sig and choose downloads. Script is
called cpuinfo.sh
Tested on RaQ3 & 4 works nicely here, and has saved a RaQ from meltdown
before
(how unlucky is it for both fans to stop at the same time!)

Andy
