I am not seriously affected by this bug. But it was interesting to go through the thread. I thot it would be nice to hear from a group of people who are not noticing the overheating.
First thing first ----> Its overheating ... I am on Presario V4122 with a Centrino [ 1.73Ghz ]. Have used XP pro over 1 year on this. Switched to Ubuntu like a week back. [7.04] Although there were no reboots or hand-burns but I definitely felt that my laptop felt a little hotter. When i researched I landed up here. I have no doubt that there is overheating is there when i compare it with windows XP. At present with Mozillz [7-8 tabs open] + few messengers and a player on + a lot of applets in panel, CPU frequency @ 46%, Temperatures at 54 and 55. . . Ok now I start a video encoding. I let it run for 5 minutes or so ... . . CPU frequency @ 100%, Temperatures @ 54 and 70 -75. So I suppose second one is CPU temperature. Lets wait 5 more mins ... . . uh .. 75, 76, 77 ... would it touch 80.. ! Nope stayed pretty much in that range ... CPU frequency @ 100% all this time ... I would just return with temperatures for same activity in XP pro on same machine ... [ 78,79!!! ] And by the way, I just loved Ubuntu .. -- CPU overheats during high usage "throttling <not supported>" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/22336 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
