How are you determining this temperature? 20 degrees seems pretty 
unlikely for any CPU, let alone a Mendocino Celeron - 40 degrees is more 
reasonable..

Fw: 2.6.11-rc4 doubles CPU temperature

[Ben Castricum]

For some weird reason, 2.6.11-rc4 up to the current BK tree about doubles my
CPU temperature from 20 degrees Celcius to 40 while everything else is
unchanged (load/processes/config). The system does seem a bit more sluggish,
but that may just be a feeling. A cat /proc/cpu gives me

I haven't got a clue on how to analyse this problem so I really appreciate
any info or suggestions I get. Please help me.

Cheers,
