Ok. I'm not sure but I think my cpu/fan is working properly. Here is what I did:
First, I checked my kernel and I already had all of those features enabled. So then I thought I would try disabling SMP. This was enabled because I have an P4 processor with HT technology. After booting the uniprocessor kernel I successfully did an emerge without my cpu overheating. Is there a command line tool that I can use that will display my CPU temperature and fan speed? I would like to test it on both kernels.
