I reinstalled and there for upgraded my kernel form 2.6.18 to
2.6.19, and also upgraded all the acpi related stuff like acpid. My
laptop overheats a lot now, it is around 90-96 degrees celcius when
compiling, and before it was a lot cooler (75 max). Has anything
major changed when dealing with acpi?
My acpid is running and my fans are on, but maybe they are not on as
strong? Is there something new to do now?
acpid probably isn't related to that anyway. Or did you configure some
thermal triggers there? Does your new kernel have proper support for
ACPI (and its thermal module) and (although not important during
compile run) CPUfreq? MCE support? All relevant modules loaded?
I guess it's not the (speed of the) fans, but rather speed throttling
what's not working as desired here.
-hwh
The throttling is almost always off, except when I not connected to
the AC. I did turn off the acpi compat. api, I trying to see if that
was it. Other than that, I just copied my old config file to the new
kernel directory and added the new stuff and turned off that I stated
above. I'll keep you up to date, thanks for sparking the idea.
Cheers,
Gabriel
Well that didn't change anything.....
