Thread: libsensors readout says 'alarm': Should I worry?

hello,

installed libsensors4 terminal. configured , ran it, idea of cpu temperatures. installed ubuntu 11.10 on older machine core 2 duo (e6600) 2.4 ghz , cpu running pretty hot under vista (about 85c).

far, temps , relieved. however, i'm assuming voltage, has word 'alarm' on several lines.

here readout:

code:

fx510x:~$ sensors  coretemp-isa-0000  adapter: isa adapter  core 0:       +56.0°c  (high = +84.0°c, crit = +100.0°c)  core 1:       +51.0°c  (high = +84.0°c, crit = +100.0°c)    emc6d103-i2c-3-2e  adapter: smbus i801 adapter @ 4000  in0:          +1.51 v  (min =  +0.00 v, max =  +3.32 v)  alarm  in1:          +1.14 v  (min =  +0.00 v, max =  +2.99 v)  alarm  in2:          +3.30 v  (min =  +0.00 v, max =  +4.38 v)  in3:          +5.06 v  (min =  +0.00 v, max =  +6.64 v)  alarm  in4:         +11.98 v  (min =  +0.00 v, max = +15.94 v)  alarm  fan1:         856 rpm  (min =    0 rpm)  fan2:           0 rpm  (min =    0 rpm)  fan3:         878 rpm  (min =    0 rpm)  fan4:           0 rpm  (min =    0 rpm)  temp1:        +34.2°c  (low  = -127.0°c, high = +127.0°c)  temp2:        +29.1°c  (low  = -127.0°c, high = +127.0°c)  temp3:        +41.2°c  (low  = -127.0°c, high = +127.0°c)  cpu0_vid:    +0.000 v

is need worry about? doesn't @ close listed max figures, i'm not sure if higher supposed , how serious should take 'alarm' messages.

, help.

here's output

code:

it's been long can remember.
so, yep, don't worry it.
