I can confirm average HDD temps of 45C as well. What's biting me is my 
CPU temperature, which averages in _idle_ state around 60C, going up to 
69C when pushing it. Sometimes it even starts smelling a little.

System: Thinkpad R32, Pentium 4 Mobile 1.6GHz, with or without port 
replicator
OS: Debian Sarge, standard Debian Kernel 2.6.8-2-686, ibm-acpi not yet 
installed
Cpufreqd doesn't change a thing, no visible change when running at 1.2GHz

andy@deedlit:~$acpi -V
      Battery 1: discharging, 90%, 01:05:56 remaining
      Thermal 1: ok, 61.0 degrees C
      Thermal 2: ok, 50.0 degrees C
   AC Adapter 1: off-line

Thermal 2 stays at 50C constantly, no change at all. If this is software 
related, what have I missed, where do I need to look?

Thanks
Andy
