So to get my job done, I capped the max cpu scaling... It's a 2.6GHz CPU, So I went down to 2.4GHz as maximum. But left anything else to they way it is by default. That still leads to a temperature of 95°C but way slower so when the cpu scaling then kicks in the cpus are cooler way faster as they are not at 2.6GHz when speed gets reduced... but thoses 95°C get hit pretty often, so I lowered it to 2,26GHz and it still hits 95°C... but not that fast.... so I lowered it to 2,13GHz
temperatures: 94 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 speed: 4518 level: auto cpu MHz : 1199.000 cpu MHz : 1199.000 cpu MHz : 2133.000 cpu MHz : 2133.000 That way the system operates stable at 93-94°C -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/751689 Title: ThinkPads overheat due to slow fans when on 'auto' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/751689/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
