Gentlemen, one day I forgot to connect the power cord and ran my EEECP 702 on the battery until it stopped.
Now whenever I power up, right from the BIOS splash boot screen, the familiar fan is never heard. Doesn't matter, right? As long as $ cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp 45000 doesn't reach $ cat /sys/devices/virtual/hwmon/hwmon0/temp1_crit 90000 ? I suppose I must write a background script that checks if it is getting close and beeps me so I will hit ^Z during e.g., aptitude full-upgrades and other intensive activity, to give the CPU a rest. Actually I never liked the fan it the first place, and a little peace and quiet would be worth it. How can I tell if the fan will ever turn on again? # echo 1 >| /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/cur_state is probably the wrong file to see if it will still turn on. How can I tell if what was damaged was the fan or not the fan? The BIOS is 0502, the latest. _______________________________________________ Debian-eeepc-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-eeepc-devel
