Hello, I'm almost sure by laptop is burning [almost] and yet, no throttling change is happening. The only wierd thing I can find is the fact that: euler ~ # cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/info processor id: 0 acpi id: 0 bus mastering control: yes power management: yes throttling control: yes limit interface: yes euler ~ # cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling state count: 4 active state: T0 states: *T0: 00% T1: 25% T2: 50% T3: 75% euler ~ # ls -la /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ total 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Apr 12 22:07 . dr-xr-xr-x 10 root root 0 Apr 12 15:26 .. Isn't it wierd that although I have throttling control, there are no thermal zones? I'm almost sure throttling should be activated... my laptop is practically burning my hands as I write this.... Is there anything I can check out?
