[Sheflug] Cpu stuff

[Richard Fletcher <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Having got a virtually new system I find in my bios that I can shut down the 
system when the CPU reaches a certain temperature, I've never known it to go 
over 7 degrees celcius, but it could have done, because I only see the 
temperature at boot up, therefore I only see the working temperature after a 
reboot. What temperature should I tell the bios to shut down at, and is there 
a way of monitoring the temperature once in Linux?

Another thing is I've looked at the information on my CPu as provided by the 
Kde preferences->Information->processor app, and it says my Athlon 1700+ is 
running at 1472.993 Mhz, am I being cheated out of ~100Mhz?
