Hi Ralf, I am not really sure if this problem is directly related to the kernel, but after 2 years of constantly updating my Archlinux it is the first time that the CPU temperature get up to 98°C if I compile stuff or render some 3D scenes and I am sure that this does not happen with the previous kernel version. cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor say powersave I will try to install the previous kernel.
