I have been getting random shutdowns on my eMachines M2350 laptop at least since feisty where the *apparent* temperature suddenly goes from <50C to >150C. I seriously doubt it's getting anywhere near that hot. The hard drive temperature is around 38C. I updated to the latest 8.10 stable (2.6.27-7-generic) hoping for a fix, but no luck:
Nov 5 23:30:54 etaoin acpid: client has disconnected Nov 5 23:30:54 etaoin kernel: [23971.024121] ACPI: Critical trip point Nov 5 23:30:54 etaoin kernel: [23971.024156] Critical temperature reached (159 C), shutting down. My /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/trip_points says: critical (S5): 100 C passive: 98 C: tc1=0 tc2=1 tsp=150 devices=CPU0 echo no longer works to change the trip points, which is noted in <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5135405&highlight=trip_points&page=2";>this thread</a>. I can't find what the new way to do it is. -- 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
