i recently started using intel wireless on my thinkpad x60, through the wpi(4) driver. earlier, i had heating issues, which were resolved by setting hw.setperf to 0, but now i again see my laptop heating up -- especially below my right palm.
temperature sensor outputs from sysctl shows: hw.sensors.acpitz0.temp0=60.05 degC (zone temperature) hw.sensors.acpitz1.temp0=60.05 degC (zone temperature) hw.sensors.cpu0.temp0=58.00 degC hw.sensors.wpi0.raw0=155 (temperature 0 - 285) hw.sensors.aps0.temp0=57.00 degC hw.sensors.aps0.temp1=57.00 degC wpi shows 155, which is roughly 68 deg C. is the heating because of wpi? that's what has changed. any pointers to cooling down the laptop will be appreciated. dmesg, if needed, is here http://www.obscure.org/~amunix/tmp/dmesg thanks. -amarendra
