Hi,
It is now some time I get nightly shutdowns "due to thermal
event" (so the Bios says).
What exactly do you see and where at the moment of the shutdown?
absolutely nothing.
Once I was at the PC when it simply shut down for no apparent reason (I did NOT
have the teplerature monitor on, at that time.
There is *NO* trace of reason whatsoever in the log files. e.g.:
Oct 27 20:18:42 localhost -- MARK --
Oct 27 20:38:42 localhost -- MARK --
Oct 27 20:58:42 localhost -- MARK --
Oct 27 21:18:42 localhost -- MARK --
Oct 27 21:38:42 localhost -- MARK --
Oct 27 21:58:43 localhost -- MARK --
----------> reboot <------------
Oct 27 22:24:50 localhost syslogd 1.4.1#17: restart.
Oct 27 22:24:50 localhost kernel: klogd 1.4.1#17, log source = /proc/kmsg
started.

/boot/System.map-2.6.12-1-686.
Oct 27 22:24:50 localhost kernel: Symbols match kernel version 2.6.12.
What should I install to monitor what's happening?
Turn off the BIOS thermal event shutdown function.
I have it turned off and my AMD Thouroughbred runs about 40C
at idle and about 52C at full load.
I see no explicit function to disable or otherwise trim the thermal event
behaviour in my BIOS.
Can You be a little more specific?
But you said the shutdown was/is because of a BIOS thermal event. How do
you know if there is nothing in the logs?
My BIOS has a section "PC Health Status", that has in it a "shutdown
temperature" enable/disable. Do you have something like that?
wmtemp is a temperature monitor, it does not record. I wrote the
recording function myself.
