Laptop Running Hot

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Greetings,

Lately (the past week or two?), my laptop has been running much hotter
than usual, as experienced by my lap and reported by conky and sensors,
even after a reboot and before I start X11, and when just idling.

Previously, it had been running around 35 to 40 degrees Celsius.  Now,
it's more like 55 to 60.

If I shut the lid and walk away for 10 or 15 minutes, it cools down.
But when I open the lid and don't do anything else, the temperature
rises again in a few minutes.

This happens even when top reports 100% idle, and uptime shows the load
average at 0.1±.

After multiple lockups attributed to the nvidia 550 drivers a few months
ago, I use nvidia-535xx-dkms.

I run pacman -Syu daily.  Sometimes, problems like this go away with the
next kernel or driver(s) update, but that hasn't happened.

I would include logs and version numbers, but I'm not sure where to
start.  :-)

I checked the BBS, but I didn't immediately't see anything related.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dan
