It is normal that the systems run a bit warmer on batteries, as the battery itsel warms up. Also some additional power savings may be done by reducing the speed of the fan. > I am wondering what parts of the machine are monitored by these T points > and whether these data can be correlated with others, to spot the hardware > involved in overheating. T1 is obviously the CPU, the others are probably various sensors placed in different locations on your motherboard. It is very likely that only T1 has a fan, so others will always be reported as "off". Have a look at "lm-sensors" package, and especially "sensors-detect" program - it may provide some additional information. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGWskrztOe9mov/y4RAnNnAKDD4dBO2WGM49U7oClmXCdCWcHDPACfYz22 m9yhRFz9QdAY1KowK137wsM= =494p -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
