------- Comment #48 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2008-06-03 11:40 -------
Phantom ACPI _PSV trip points are not how datacenter
thermal constraints will be managed.  In datacenters,
Node Manager informs the OS to stay within a maximum
P-state, and if that is insufficient, then it resorts
to a maximum T-state.  This mechanism is already in place
and already working.  And it is not dependent on Node Manager,
that is just an example of a commercial implementation.

The object of this bug report is to work-around a single instance
of a single 3-year-old notebook that has broken thermals --
while not breaking any other systems.

If we could figure out how Windows copes with this box
in the process, that might also be useful in pointing
out a gap in the Linux implementation.

So lets get this sighting dealt with and if we find a torrent
of systems such the the DMI list becomes large, then it makes
sense to consider broader deployment.

Martin,
Please attach the output from dmidecode.
