Plus, does lm_sesnros support your board? Run (as root) $ sensors-detect [8], let it try to find you i2c chipset and configure it - it should give you CPU/Chipset temperature/fan speed/voltage/etc. More-ever, configure smartd [8] to monitor the hard disk health and use smartctl [8] to check the current status. (Usually smartctl -a <device>) - Gilboa [8] means man 8 XXX.
Thanks for the help. I tried memory check but nothing is wrong with it. By the way this FC5 box is on Duron chip and guess the motherboard is also quite old. "sensor-detect" detects mostly the NVIDIA things only, not a thing about CPU/Chipset temp/fan speed. I guess its not supported. I guess something is wrong with my cable. I changed the cable and now its fine again. I used to leave this machine unattended for minimum of 3 days straight and its running without complain. I don't know if its going to show same thing again. Post it later if porblem occurs. Thanks again!
