Hi,

I just gave the interior of my T43 a good dusting. I have since then
been watching the temperature of the southbridge (10th entry in
/proc/acpi/ibm/thermal) and noticed that it goes to 46°C on an idle
system with the CPU a 800 MHz. As I don't remember what it was before, I
would like to know: Is this normal? Or did I somehow damge something?
