As a matter of fact, when this problem manifested itself for the first time, it was extremely massive, and my laptop was willing to shut itself down several times a day. After vacuuming, it took over two weeks and really heavy load to have it force itself shut down again. Nonetheless, there were no significant objective differences in internal temperatures, looking at the output of sensors. Even the cooler is still running pretty loud. That might mean that either I'm exactly on the border of the "critical" temperature as perceived by acpi-tz and a marginal increase kills it, or that it's simply based on something else than temperature. Anyway, in my case, there's a direct causality between load (temperature) and the shutdowns, but the shutdowns still seem to be bogus, happening at way lower temperature than they should happen. --- Comment #44 from John <johnmbry...@sky.com> 2011-01-06 15:08:10 --- (In reply to comment #43) > Well, in my case, vacuuming did have a significant effect. No effect at all here, both in terms of the frequency of shutdowns and reported temperatures. > Anyway, in my case, there's a direct causality between load (temperature) and > the shutdowns Again, seems to happen completely at random here with no correlation.
