Check /var/log/acpid (or whereever acpid logs for you) and see if you
got a power button message about then. I had this problem on a machine
at work and I've had to disable the power button in acpi.<br>

spontaneously reboot this week. From what I've read, it's most likely a
motherboard or power supply failure. Is there anything I can do with
Fedora to help troubleshoot this?

/var/log/messages doesn't seem to tell me anything useful. The last
reboot came around 9:20. <br>

Is there anything I can do to enable more logging of this issue? Here's
my rsyslog.conf:<br>
<br>
# Log all kernel messages to the console.
<br>
# Logging much else clutters up the screen.<br>
#kern.* /dev/console<br>
<br>
# Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher.<br>
# Don't log private authentication messages!
<br>
*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none
/var/log/messages<br>
<br>
# The authpriv file has restricted access.<br>
authpriv.* /var/log/secure<br>
<br>
# Log all the mail messages in one place.
<br>
mail.*
-/var/log/maillog<br>
<br>
<br>
# Log cron stuff<br>
cron.* /var/log/cron<br>
<br>
# Everybody gets emergency messages
<br>
*.emerg *<br>
<br>
# Save news errors of level crit and higher in a special file.<br>
