Re: [ilugd] Sony Vaio overheats with Ubuntu Linux Oneiric Ocelot

Hi all,

I recently bought a Sony Vaio (VPCSB16FG) laptop which I converted today to
a dual boot setup by installing Ubuntu Oneiric. However, when booted into
Linux, the laptop overheats and the fan noise becomes unbearable, so much so
that I had to shutdown the machine to prevent any potential damage to the
hardware. On logging out to the user selection screen, the fan slows down
but it is still audible. Using Unity 2D instead of 3D seems to help a little
bit though I am yet to extensively test that.


Haven't used Sony Laptops. While setting up on a Lenovo, following is 
what I encountered (I'm not using it myself, neither tested it)


http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/things-to-tweak-after-installing-ubuntu.html

It's a post which mentions about "Jupiter" under the "Longer battery 
life" section. It also has a further link


http://www.webupd8.org/2011/06/linux-kernel-power-issue-fix.html

Maybe you can derive something from there.

2011-10-19 Thread krish
We have a Vaio YB25 AMD Zacate dual core E-350.
Runs fine with Ubuntu 11.04 .. battery life is a tad bit less than the
Windows measure up.

The Windows 7 that came with the laptop has been running absolutely fine for
the past few days, so this does not seem to be a hardware defect. My two
year old Dell Vostro running Ubuntu Natty also has absymal battery
performance (30 minutes after a full charge) so could it be that Linux is
really inferior to Windows when it comes to power management? The Vaio is my
first machine in many years where I did not immediately replace Windows with
a Linux distro and have been able to directly compare the power management
of the two.


I'm not a fan of Unity, Compiz and, or Ubuntu fanfare, but I first test 
ran Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric" beta2 from a USB Stick for about 3-4 hours on 
a DELL Inspiron N5010 and then installed a proper release on this laptop 
a few days ago for my nephew as dual boot alongside original Win7 which 
I did not want to remove due to a simple reason that this laptop is 
still under warranty till November 14, 2011. FYI, the machine runs fine 
here even while booted off of a Ubuntu partition :)


I have not read, but still hope that the page at 
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/VAIO+Linux.html 
 helps solve your problem.

some of the cases they fired an employee without notice didnt give the
salaru and also kicked it out  from the company  provided room at night
