You mean the fan does not turn _on_ until the trip point is nearly reached, right? Can you sample the output of /proc/i8k while doing some load? Like run the following in one terminal
while true; do cat /proc/i8k; sleep 2; done | tee i8k.log and then run this in another terminal: while true; do continue; done The temprature output should rise, abort the second loop before it gets too hot. Then please post the logfile here. -- CPU fan not working properly: kernel/drivers/char/i8k.ko not autoloaded https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160291 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
