Here's the output of the commands you suggested running. Seems similar to what you put in your email. grep -i therm dmesg [ 0.003175] CPU0: Thermal monitoring enabled (TM2) [ 1.285152] thermal LNXTHERM:00: registered as thermal_zone0 [ 1.285320] ACPI: Thermal Zone [TZ01] (57 C) ls /sys/class/thermal cooling_device0 cooling_device1 thermal_zone0 cd /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0 ls cdev0 device subsystem trip_point_1_temp cdev0_trip_point mode temp trip_point_1_type cdev1 policy trip_point_0_temp type cdev1_trip_point power trip_point_0_type uevent ls -l /sys/bus/acpi/devices/LNXTHERM\:00/thermal_zone/temp -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Apr 13 15:14 /sys/bus/acpi/devices/LNXTHERM:00/thermal_zone/temp grep CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL /usr/src/linux/.config CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y So I guess I'll go ahead and set CONFIG_X86_PKG_TEMP_THERMAL=n. Thanks.
