------- Comment #71 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-03-26 11:57 ------- My experience with BIOS v1.32 and Ubuntu Hardy (Kernel 2.6.24-12-generic x86_64) is as follows. 1. The DSDT is compiled with the Microsoft ASL compiler, and has all the errors that the v1.31 lacks. However, there is new code. I cleaned it up using the v1.31 source as a model. 2. When booted with ec_intr=0 (see comment 54), the fan is on all the time, at the slowest speed, even though the temperature in the thermal_zone is below the threshold. The fan didn't speed up, and the thermal_zone temperature was not updated, when I pushed the temperature higher by loading the CPU. 3. When booted without ec_intr=0, the fan stayed off, unless I turned it on (see comment 62). 4. When booted with ec_intr=0 and acpi_osi=!Linux, the fan stayed on all the time. However, the thermal_zone value temperature was updated, and the fan sped up, when I pushed the temperature higher by loading the CPU. When I took the load off, the temperature dropped, and the fan slowed down. However, the fan never stopped altogether. 5. By ear, I can detect 4 different fan speeds, which seem to come in to play at 50, 66, 74 and 80 C, when I set the temperature in thermal_zone manually. Someone with better hearing may be able to identify more! 6. Once the fan is running, shut-off temperatures are a few degrees lower, eg. 45. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
