Ubuntu overheating since 11.10 for a lot of thinkpad computers

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

 



Hello,

Since ubuntu 11.10, some thinkpad computers suffer from overheating and
reboot (due to excessive heat). You can follow the bug report here:

<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/751689>

After changing thinfan speed level, the problem stays. I've been trying
some solutions but no clue for now:

<http://askubuntu.com/questions/133030/overheating-and-reboot-with-ubuntu-11-10-and-12-04-on-thinpad-t500>

A recent comment in the ubuntu bug report shows a linux bug with the
same effect and its resolution on acpi:

<https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42858>

sadly, this fix is already present in Linux 12.04, but correct me if i'm
wrong, the acpi managment is different for thinkpad, no ? If yes, could
be this linux bug present in the thinkpad_acpi module ?

Anyway, if you have any idea how to diagnose the problem, i'm ready to help.

Thank you.

Cheers,

Julien
