I'm using Intrepid on a T60 (IBM Thinkpad) with the 2.6.27-11-generic kernel. The fan basically stays at approx. 3400 RPM regardless of temperature. If I run something a bit more heavy on the graphics such as a 3D game, the machine usually freezes after 15-30 minutes.
I actually got the fan to spin up faster (disengaged mode @ around 5300 RPM) using the ThinkPad Fan Control: http://www.gambitchess.org/mediawiki/index.php/ThinkPad_Fan_Control This does help a lot and keep the temperature down to about 90 degrees C for both the CPU:s and the GPU. It's still too high but at least it's not freezing up so often (it still happens though). I'm pretty sure something is wrong because the fan levels are supposed to be higher at high loads (~4500 for the T60 according to ThinkWiki). So basically I just want to confirm that this is still very much an issue. -- thinkpad CPU overheat ubuntu hardy 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
