I may not be looking properly, but I can't find its chip name. This default configuration file only deals with a limited number of chips for which a generic configuration is possible. In your case, please create a new configuration file under /etc/sensors.d and add your statements here, starting with chip "nouveau-pci-0100" statement. You should indeed be able to adjust the thermal thresholds of your graphics adapter with the nouveau driver. That being said... Either you trust the temperature value and you should be worried and not adjust the thresholds, or you don't trust it and it will be difficult to decide what values to set the thresholds to. Anyway, you said that you had to replace the fan a few months ago. Do you remember the temperatures you got before that? Usually there is a common cooling system for CPU and GPU in laptops, so I suspect that your broke cooling for the GPU when changing the fan. It's really easy to break, if the heatsink is no longer in straight contact with the GPU, cooling become totally inefficient. You could temporarily try the binary driver from nvidia to have a comparison point. If it returns a value much lower than nouveau is reporting, that would be a bug in nouveau. If it returns the same value then your hardware is really in danger. > Also, is there a way to run "module-init-tools" without getting "stop/waiting"? This is a completely unrelated question and I don't even understand it. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
