I have an LC2210DE that has an overheating issue. The CPU gets so hot, the machine turns itself off with some cutoff on the board itself.. It's really frustrating for my wife, since it's her machine. I have an ongoing ticket with LinuxCertified. They said there was a kernel bug, but a kernel upgrade and hours spent on tweaking cpuspeed and laptop stands haven't cured the problem. When the system shuts down, it's a hard shutoff at high extended CPU usage, like the prelink process run from cron. Nothing's logged, there's no sign of it being shut down orderly by acpi. Next step is an RMA, the story unfolds. -- ====================================================================== Joe Hartley - UNIX/network Consultant - jh@xxxxxxxxxxxx Without deviation from the norm, "progress" is not possible. - FZappa
