Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.20-12-generic
I've recently updated my laptop to Feisty. However, I have problems getting the computer to boot into the new kernel. On boot up the kernel very often claims that it detected overheating of the CPU. Ironically, this seems to happen especially often, when the computer is just being started. The ACPI subsystem reports that the temperature has reached 255 C and brings the computer to a halt. Later in the halting process the correct temperature is reported. Something along the lines of "CPU reached critical trip point (26 C) halting now." This problem does not occur on the same hardware using edgy or gentoo (both running an older kernel) ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- kernel 2.6.20-xx incorrectly claims processor overheating https://launchpad.net/bugs/94862 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
