Responses to the points above I disagree with: * fan not running at full speed in disengaged mode in a thermal emergency "... so it never exceeds a top speed of 3500 RPM. This matches the original thermal design by the manufacturer." -When reality acutely requires full speed, it is madness to refer to original designs.
"... we would see lots of owners with your machine reporting this bug..." -Where are the 100 automated error reports of my previous overheat crashes? I quess nowhere, because Apport doesn't catch them - it is not considered an error to shut down in a self-caused thermal emergency. I procrastinated filing this bug report for 3 years, because "surely someone will notice all these crashes any day now". Then it took many days of persistent work to find out how to file a kernel bug report using Apport, because there is no such option in the menu; you have to ask Ubuntu support to find out the trick. It is too difficult, so don't expect people to do it. How many users even know how to launch Apport? There is no "Report a bug" in Gnome menu. * shutting down when supposed to suspend as a reaction to overheat, unnecessarily destroying session "when a critical thermal event occurs one has a very short time window to react. ... the machine is desperately trying to save itself from breaking." -Then why not suspend in 1 second, but instead shut down in 8 seconds? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1491797 Title: Shuts down when supposed to suspend as a reaction to self-caused overheat, session lost To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1491797/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
