Hi, I came across this cool info when fiddling with my laptop for solving the hibernate problem --
Temperature info ! so ... # acpi -c -T -B Thermal 1: ok, 43.0 degrees C This with gnome-desktop. Heh, then it struck me, what if i check the temperature on every other desktop env and rate them according to their "coolness" ? KDE and XFCE turned out cooler than gnome, but m'be coz i hadn't enabled any additional features plugins etc etc. But then again if temp is high, would mean that a process is stressing the processor . Can this be a valid way than say top/profile to figure expensive wasteful cycles ? how cool is your tp / desktop ? whats your opinion on this ? regards, C -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
