Mikkel, sorry to hear about your experiences. A couple of suggestions to help you alleviate the worst problems.
a) run a lucid kernel (just download and install) b) as mentioned in the upstream kernel bug, add thermal.psv=80 to kernel boot parameters (-> grub) c) lower the CPU frequency (use ondemand or even powersave) d) if running ondemand, look at top to understand what is using CPU and do "sudo renice `pidof $app` " for that app That should get the computer back to usable. Would be nice to hear about your experiences and your data in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14695 -- regression in karmic thermal control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432670 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
