The solutions I have come up with are: 1. Hang Laptop off table by 4 inches to allow more air to reach the bottom vent. 2. Change dev.cpu.0.freq to a lower value dev.cpu.0.freq: 1791 dev.cpu.0.freq_levels: 1990/35000 1791/29200 1592/24200 796/7900 3. Direct a Fan at the bottom vent to force more air thru the vent. I also installed sysutils/k8temp to monitor the temp while compiling: # while true ; do k8temp ; sleep 30 ; done CPU 0 Core 1 Sensor 0: 65c CPU 0 Core 1 Sensor 0: 67c If the temp goes above 89c, the computer will lock up. When I notice this, lowering dev.cpu.0.freq to a lower value is enough to allow the compile to finish. I have also added the following to sysctl.conf, but it doesn't seem to affect the thermal lock up problem. hw.acpi.thermal.user_override=1 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._PSV=3432 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._HOT=3600 hw.acpi.thermal.user_override=0 This changes _PSV from 90C to 70C, and sets _HOT. # sysctl hw.acpi.thermal hw.acpi.thermal.min_runtime: 0 hw.acpi.thermal.polling_rate: 10 hw.acpi.thermal.user_override: 0 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature: 0.0C hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.active: -1 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.passive_cooling: 1 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.thermal_flags: 0 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._PSV: 70.0C hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._HOT: 86.8C hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._CRT: -1 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._ACx: 40.0C -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._TC1: 2 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._TC2: 5 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._TSP: 50 ScotReceived on Wed May 28 2008 - 14:05:51 UTC
