All I know is that back last week, my machine was desperately hot to the touch, and froze up. I hard-powered off, called my vendor, left it most of a day to cool down... but am now running it on top of a cooler.
SOMETHING happened after system updates (accepting 2.6.24-24.53 onto my machine) that I took on about two weeks back, which caused the laptop to be extremely hot to the touch, whacked the thermal warnings into my logs, AND DID NOT SHUT DOWN. In order to run my machine, I HAVE to run it on the cooler, and the fan does not go about about 3100rpm. It was unbearably hot, and it is only with the cooler running, blowing cold air at the base on the unit, that the CPU stays within functional temps. Since then - I run it on top of the cooler.. but if I ever did boot into -24.53 again, it would probably overheat. As stuff is often rolled in.. PLEASE JUST FIX IT. I am *not* a developer. Nor do I want to see my laptop break if I had to run it away from the cooler. -- Ubuntu 9.04 laptop overheat and shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370173 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
