Email this pagehttps://bbs.archlinux.org – Before I post, I'd just like to say that there should be a General Hardware section for Non-Arch related stuff.Right, this problem has been going on for ages. About a year ago I installed a program that monitors heat for my laptop. I always knew it got really hot when in use but I never expected the meter to read 96 celcius!

Email this pagehttps://bbs.archlinux.org – I'm having an odd problem with a largish FTP download. Using wget, python ftplib and lftp, when I download this particular file (~241 MB of text/CSV information), the entire file will download but then it stops and has to be manually killed. This same file downloads perfectly from another Arch machine in a different location. (HowTos)
