Update from my test with ubuntu xenial: - installed 16.04.1 - updated to 4.8.12 [my test may not be as useful because of this, but I did not have a lot of time, and decided to proceed with latest release] - installed nvidia 375.20 and switched to intel graphics - replaced grub parameter quiet splash with acpi_osi="!Windows 2015" as suggested - installed powertop and set tunables to good as suggested
results are the same as my normal setup - fans start to run at ~15 min. after boot ( on practically idle ), fans kept running until ~1 hr. uptime. ( checked twice, both cases essentially idle ) on the upside, powertop is one additional tool that I can no use to maybe squeeze out additional couple minutes of battery runtime. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1602888 Title: Dell Inspiron 7559 fans do not shut off once started, even when cool To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1602888/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
