[Bug 1387144] Re: why does linux-image-generic depend on thermald
We've moved to the intel-pstate driver by default for 14.10 which is an improved frequency scaling driver. On some hardware we've had evidence of this pushing the CPU a little harder and some machines were running hot, so we've also included thermald to stop thermal overruns. Also, thermald has proved useful on 14.04 on some i7 based laptops that have poor thermal designs, buggy thermal trip data, CPU thermal paste issues or broken active cooling (such as fans). These machines have normally shutdown because of overheating. Thermald kicks in passive cooling to prevent thermal overruns on these broken machines. However, it would be useful to uninstall this, so making it recommended is probably the best option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1387144 Title: why does linux-image-generic depend on thermald To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1387144/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1387144] Re: why does linux-image-generic depend on thermald
I forgot to mention that thermald does exit if the H/W or visualized H/W does not support the necessary thermal controls, so on these systems it's more like a no-op. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1387144 Title: why does linux-image-generic depend on thermald To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1387144/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
