[Bug 272537] Re: cooling fan wont turn on
@terry_gardener -- there is an updares toshiba acpi module in the -proposed kernel which may well sort this out for you, testing there would be very helpful. @Petar Velkovski -- Undecided simply means noone has triaged the bug and selected a level. Your symptoms sound similar, but as they relate to an ACPI issue on a different hardware platform you are very likely to need a different solution, therefore it is safest to file a separate bug for that, they can be trivially merged later if they are the same not so split. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Summary changed: - cooling fan wont turn on + toshiba satellite amilo a100-998: cooling fan wont turn on -- toshiba satellite amilo a100-998: cooling fan wont turn on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272537 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
[Bug 272537] Re: cooling fan wont turn on
I am using 2.6.27-10 kernel, Ubuntu 8.10. dmesg output: . [ 2924.116311] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [f7418738] 'on' [ 2930.116232] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [f7418738] 'on' [ 2936.116236] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [f7418738] 'on' [ 2942.116236] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [f7418738] 'on' [ 2948.116234] ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device [f7418738] 'on' I have Shuttle KPC K4500 PC. My PC's BIOS offers 4 different settings for the CPU fan speed. Low, Medium, High and Auto. After experiencing weird resets of my PC, I changed the settings from Auto to Medium and now the PC is stable again. If you are wondering why I'm writing this report, it is because I noticed that this bug report importance is marked as undecided. Please excuse me for giving lectures, but I strongly believe that any bug that could possibly lead to hardware damage, in this case to the CPU because of a overheating, should be marked as critical. I triaged my problem, but there should be a mechanism for warning other users of Ubuntu for bugs of this type. -- cooling fan wont turn on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272537 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

Probably kernel configuration change. 2.6.24-20 (hardy proposed) has these options. 2.6.27-4 hasn't. CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA=m CONFIG_TOSHIBA=m So probably no need to report upstream. -- cooling fan wont turn on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272537 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

can you install acpitool, then try running acpitool -f and seeing what it says? If it sees a fan, try running acpitool -F 1 to force the fan on. -- cooling fan wont turn on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272537 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
