Re: [Bug 382806] Re: Fan doesn't switch on TOSHIBA L305D in Hardy Heron
Bonjorno Fabio, Yes I can accurately attest that my laptop ( L305D -S5881 AMD 64 bit) is working very well without overheating and that suspend/resume works very well. This never happened before for over 1.5 years. Even my compiled kernel 2.6.30 couldn't get the suspend/resume or Fn keys to work right. The most crucial step was upgrade to 9.10 which runs -- 2.6.31-22-generic #61-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 28 02:02:56 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux. Please try downgrading to the 9.10 with this kernel and hopefully you will have success. Prior to this I felt Ubuntu was unusable! since the overheating was a bit too much. If you touched the laptop your hand would feel as though you have touched a hot plate !. Thanks for letting me know that Lucid has this problem.. which means I will not upgrade until someone confirms that it is ok.!

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 500666 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/500666 Wow! I have GREAT NEWS regarding my Toshiba Laptop L305-S5881. I struggled with this issue since I bought the laptop in '08 October. Reported it a number of issues. Tried i) Hardy - Ubuntu 8 (temps 75C ) , then ii) Jaunty - Ubuntu 9.0.4( temps 65 but definitely still hot ) iii) compiled the 2.6.30 kernel and installed the image all to no avail then gave up the idea of running Ubuntu solely on this laptop, being aware that the laptop could fry over. Last week dual booted Vista crashed - had to recover my email from thunderbird and then decided to look into Ubuntu again based on Jeremy's email a couple of months ago. After looking through the acpi module source code -noticed a patch was introduced in sleep.c referencing Toshiba Satellite L300 to set the EIN bit , changed this string to Toshiba Satellite L305 and recompiled Kernel.. Still no difference. Then did an upgrade to 9.10 . After the upgrade and a reboot VOILA ! i) My Fn keys are working. Suspend actuallly WORKS! .. It never did. always had to power down the switch to make it recover from either Suspend to RAM or Hibernate. -dmesg always showed errors in ACPI . ii) And then the magic .. acpi -t shows 45 C... !!! This laptop has never showed this reading after 10 mins. of usage before this. So fellow Ubuntu aficianados! using Toshiba Laptops L305D or similar models. Please try out the generic kernel 2.6.31-22 ( 9.10 upgrade ). The overheating and the Suspend issues are definitely fixed for this model in this release. My salutations to the developer/s who fixed this most annoying bug/bugs which almost rendered the Laptop unusable on Ubuntu.. It would have perhaps taken my weeks of ploughing through the ACPI modules ( sleep.c, fan.c etc ) to try and fix this monster.! Not to mention the 1 hour kernel compile on each change!.. Glad I can get back to the application space!.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 500666 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/500666 Hi Jeremy, Thanks for your note. Sorry about checking this out after so long. I spent many days trying to understand this problem. A few months ago I even recompiled my kernel and the problem is still there. Temps are running distinctly higher than Vista. My Toshiba laptop doesn't shutdown but definitely runs hotter than normal. The last compile compile ( from maybe 6 months ago) which I am currently still running is 2.6.30 with the acpi=Linux added in the /boot/grub/menu.lst. I haven't tried out Ubuntu 10 version. Have you guys changed anything in the acpi module for the latest kernel.. ?

Same issue, slightly different machine, and still occurring in Lucid Lynx (x86-64). My Satellite is an L305D-S5897. There are no issues with the fan in Windows Vista.

Hi peterwil, This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux 382806 Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message.

Upgraded to Jaunty and temps start a bit lower now.. But still spikes to 75C.. from time to time.. Is this normal ? And fan default status is still OFF. Please make this work for Toshiba users.. Are Toshiba extensions available for Jaunty users?

Same machine, also having temperature issues, running jaunty x86-64. The reason acpitool doesn't work is that it requires the toshiba_acpi kernel module, which does not work for this model, apparently. Fan control seems to be hit and miss. Sometimes the fan will not spin faster when it really should be, sometimes it starts spinning fast and does not slow down again until I suspend and resume the machine.

Re: [Bug 382806] Re: Fan doesn't switch on TOSHIBA L305D in Hardy Heron
Yes I installed acpitool under jaunty.. It has an option to force the fan ON but it complained that the toshiba_acpi kernel extensions were not installed We have to figure out a way to modify this .. Also in my dmesg output I see Thermal Zone critical setting at 105C but I don't see passive temperature settings at all..
