** Description changed: Ubuntu 9.04, fresh install on Acer Aspire 5005. Not sure about package, but it seems the problem is with CPU frequency adjustment or fan control. Laptop shuts down right in the middle of CPU-greedy operation overheated. I haven't seen it before (since 7.10). The issue is discussed at several forums (eg. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130450) ---- *-cpu product: AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology ML-37 vendor: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] physical id: 1 bus info: c...@0 version: 15.4.2 size: 2GHz capacity: 2GHz width: 64 bits capabilities: fpu fpu_exception wp vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt x86-64 3dnowext 3dnow up pni lahf_lm cpufreq ----- - Comment #327 points to the "server" edition not suffering from this - bug, as well as to a blog post linking to summaries. + + Comment #308 points to specifics with ati graphics cards were you can work around the problem by disabling some acpi functions with the fglrx driver. + + Comment #327 points to the "server" edition (no acpi) not suffering from + this bug, as well as to a blog post linking to summaries. http://designbygravity.wordpress.com/2009/12/01/how-linux-almost-drove- me-to-windows-xp/
