------- Comment #3 from [email protected] 2008-12-12 14:41 ------- I discovered the first of your points at random by hitting a patch in the kernel git that disables such DMI messages because of their futility - unfortunately, by then I'd already submitted this. I did try compressed and smaller versions of the mailing list posting... guess it's just me. Anyway, I couldn't get an accurate "before" of the thermal_zone contents because it seems to trigger quite early, but I got a consistent "after": /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/cooling_mode:0 - Active; 1 - Passive /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/polling_frequency:<polling disabled> /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/state:state: ok /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature:temperature: 51 C /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/trip_points:critical (S5): 155 C /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/trip_points:passive: 82 C: tc1=0 tc2=0 tsp=0 devices= The only thing that changed between attempts at this was the actual temp but it never exceeded 60 (I'd know about it - it sits on my lap). It does have a certain consistency in that the laptop's fans have to have kicked in before this error will appear. I don't know what the 82 is supposed to represent but I assume that's the magic temp when things should happen - I very, very much doubt this laptop ever hits 82C at all because burn-in tests with me watching the temp don't see it go that hot even when stressing both cores and the GPU on mains power (most I got was about 72C). TO do that, the fans went to what I assume was full speed which doesn't happen even on boot, and a clean boot from a cold start into Linux still gets me that error once the fans power up even in their lowest setting around the 50C mark. If I boot quickly (before the fans kick in) or keep the laptop cooler for a while longer, I can probably get a "before". I'll post if I manage it. -- 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
