------- Comment #30 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-05-15 04:36 ------- I have now tested the patches from comments #25-27 on 2.6.25.2, and they work perfectly. Passive cooling kicks in above 96C and uses all the available frequencies. I can deliberately block the fan and it still won't overheat, but is still able to spend most of its time at 2GHz by short bursts of passive cooling. Presumably however this all depends on the temperature being polled due to the patch in comment #25. If that patch is not acceptable, is there a better way to do this? If the trip point is programmable, perhaps in this case (critical trip point only) we could reprogram the hardware trip point to a few C below that and start polling only when we hit that lower limit, but still keep the shutdown threshold at the BIOS-defined critical setting. -- 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
