My Toshiba Satellite A505-S6970 laptop running Ubuntu 10.04 recently abruptly stopped running after I restarted it 3 times. A subsequent investigation revealed that the BIOS caught an overtemp condition and powered off.
Unfortunately this caught the hard drive updating files and so the system had to recover inodes upon boot up. Question: Is there an easy way to integrate the BIOS notification into the kernel? How can I prod the kernel into coming down gently and not let the BIOS hammer the computer into power off? Just curious how others have successfully done this? Thanks for your input!
