hi,
when i start working in terminal or console after while get a series of these messages:
May 29 05:52:51 localhost kernel: CPU0: Temperature above threshold
May 29 05:52:51 localhost kernel: CPU0: Running in modulated clock mode
i check the /var/log/messages and there is also this message:
May 29 05:53:01 localhost kernel: CPU0: Temperature/speed normal
it means these are false messages, i search the google and find the solution to disable MCE_P4THERMAL but can't find how to do it?
or how to remove the CONFIG_X86_MCE_P4THERMAL from the runing fc5 kernel?

Does this show anything? maybe it's a sysctl option...i have amd here, so maybe it will show for you or someone else.

# /sbin/sysctl -a | grep therm


EDIT :


$ for x in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/*; do cat $x; done

I found that on google. Apparently there are ways to adjust the threshhold value, once you are sure the hardware is really and truly not running hot.
