It is TM1 that I see in the logs. Thanks for the detail explanation. The only thing it doesn't explain, is why this only happens when using Ubuntu and not Windows... I'll be fore to revert if it continues to crash.
Ubuntu will allow systems temp to go up without stop? Shouldn't it slow down frequency or anything to prevent overheating? My current working env is 25C, and it crashed in 5 mins... In addition, I see CPUX: Core temperature/speed above threshold, cpu clock throttled, and right after (same time), it's "normal". Then it crash. This seems to point to a reset in the throttling mecanism... isn't? I see this [18766.765333] CPU1: Core temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 22) [18766.765335] CPU0: Core temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 22) [18766.766364] CPU0: Core temperature/speed normal [18766.766365] CPU1: Core temperature/speed normal I just reverified this... it happens again, and later it crashes. But by cpu freq, as per /proc/cpuinfo , is still at max, 2.4 Ghz ** Changed in: lm-sensors (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1163573 Title: Ubuntu 12.10 overheats my laptop until it shutdowns without notice To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lm-sensors/+bug/1163573/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
