Title: Shuts down when supposed to suspend as a reaction to self-caused overheat, session lost Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Error: Kernel foolishly shuts down the computer when it overheats because of the underlying bug "Overheat due to slow fans when on 'auto'" ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/751689 ). /var/log/kern.log W500 kernel: [1448.648529] thermal thermal_zone1: critical temperature reached (100 C), shutting down (Hardware is ok: when the fan is forced to full speed, no overheating.) Consequence: Shutting down destroys session in Ubuntu, Gnome, and all applications that can't remember their latest conscious state (most applications). Attempted repair, failed: Laptop has suspending ability, but I can't find the setting for the kernel to make the computer suspend instead of shutting down. Repair suggestions: 1. Persistence of session, so that everything would reappear after the restart. (this would also make updating less disruptive) 2. Do not heat the machine like crazy; speed up fans or slow down processes. (fix the slow fan bug affecting Lenovo Thinkpads and fix thermald failing to throttle CPU) 3. Put the computer to suspend when it's too hot. The problem has remained the same from at least Ubuntu 11.10 through 14.04 .
