[Bug 370173] Re: Ubuntu 9.04 laptop overheat and shutdown
This is copypasting from my original post back when this first happened to me, in #213818. I haven't used Linux on this machine for some time, but I recall testing Jaunty and finding that it didn't fix anything. [paste] Similar issue here, not quite sure whether it's the same. Running 8.04 on a Thinkpad t60p (Intel Core2Duo proc), my fan speed for some reason will not go above 3500RPM while set to "auto". I haven't had a shutdown yet, but I've been unable to boot once. Temperature mostly hangs on 62C, which is simply too darn high for an idling laptop on AC. Funny bit is that I'm for some reason unable to manually set fan speed, even though I turned the necessary module option (thinkpad_acpi fan_control=1) - I get a Permission Denied, whether I try as root or as a plain user. [paste] The t60p uses an ATI FireGL V5250, which I've used with both the free and the non-free drivers. I really do hope this gets cleared up. And, probably, split up.

I hadn't bothered to read the bugs I got merged into yet, but if 370173 is in any way related to nVidia that merge shouldn't have happened. The original bug that got me here, 213818, has been reproduced on a bunch of Thinkpad t60 laptops - they've got not a bit of nVidia inside I'm pretty sure. My graphics card is ATI anyway.

[Bug 213818] Re: thinkpad CPU overheat ubuntu hardy 8.04
So far: It took me a while to get Windows running properly, hadn't booted into it for a couple of months now. Using the Thinkvantage tools I'm at least able to throttle my CPUs down, resulting in drastically lower temperatures. I'm not sure how much this was affected by my blowing through the fan to get some dust out beforehand, though. Sensor 1: 47C Sensor 2: 62C CPU0 & CPU1: 47C It was good to hear the fans spinning up for a change, too. On the other hand, the only acpi application I could find right now doesn't see any fan information, which boggles me a bit - Ubuntu didn't have a working custom DSDT file, yet did at least get fan information though it couldn't set it. Will test with some LiveCD tomorrow. -- thinkpad CPU overheat ubuntu hardy 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This annoys the hell out of me, frankly. I'll be testing with some LiveCDs and Windows now and report my findings. So far the internet seems to suggest that SMP + ACPI support has been broken ever since 6.06. -- thinkpad CPU overheat ubuntu hardy 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
