Hello! How can I set a thermal trip point for the critical temperature as shown by acpi -V? (My laptop, Toshiba Satellite Pro l770-116, intel HM65 chipset, shuts down frequently under high CPU load and I suspect too low a critical temperature setting, namely 84°C, to be the culprit, as I read that 91+°C are not uncommon for my system under heavy load) I asked at the lm-sensors mailing list and I was advised to ask here. I was told that I might have to edit the DSDT tables to accomplish this. Is there possibly some simpler way or can someone give me a hint on how to do this? What I want to accomplish is: I want to set (increase) the temperature temp_crit1 shown in the output of sensors -u for the virtual device acpitz-virtual-0. Thank you for your help, Thomas For reference, I attached the output of acpi -V and sensors -u commands. # acpi -V […] Thermal 0: ok, 57.0 degrees C Thermal 0: trip point 0 switches to mode critical at temperature 84.0 degrees C Thermal 0: trip point 1 switches to mode passive at temperature 105.0 degrees CThermal 0: ok, 57.0 degrees C Thermal 0: trip point 0 switches to mode critical at temperature 84.0 degrees C Thermal 0: trip point 1 switches to mode passive at temperature 105.0 degrees C: […] # sensors -u acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: temp1_input: 73.000 temp1_crit: 84.000 coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Physical id 0: temp1_input: 71.000 temp1_max: 86.000 temp1_crit: 100.000 temp1_crit_alarm: 0.000 Core 0: temp2_input: 71.000 temp2_max: 86.000 temp2_crit: 100.000 temp2_crit_alarm: 0.000 Core 1: temp3_input: 71.000 temp3_max: 86.000 temp3_crit: 100.000 temp3_crit_alarm: 0.000 pkg-temp-0-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: temp1_input: 71.000 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
