http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9167 --- Comment #91 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-05-28 02:31 --- (In reply to comment #90) I have seen this symptom with a different model of Acer (an old Travelmate 291), and obviously a different BIOS. For me, it started after I switched from the old Intel Graphics Driver (i810) to the new one. I don't think I have seen it on AC power. I didn't switch back because the new driver was obviously much faster ... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9167 --- Comment #87 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-05-13 09:14 --- (In reply to comment #86) The new address is correct, but the script is not usable because I observe a different behaviour now (I suppose it started with 1.3x series of BIOSes introducing WMI1 Device in DSDT): My Aspire 5715z has 32-bit and 64-bit Hardy Heron, and Vista Home Basic installed. Regardless of cold boot or return from stanby of the said OSes (including Vista w/Acer's ePower thing running), I suffer overcooling. Also, the following message that appeared in kern.log everytime fan was turned on/off has vanished (which, I suppose, is a Good Thing): APIC error on CPU0: 40(40) The regular observation is fan starting @50C, and stopping @45C (TZ01/temp reading). However, sometimes it starts around 40-45C, albeit quieter than that @50C. TZ01/temp quickly drops to 40, then to 35. Coretemp readings go way lower. At this point patching the value 2828 (or lower) no longer stops the fan, I have to patch a 50C (3232) first. Because, I suppose, the firmware to turn it off is not aware of an active fan triggered somewhere @40-45C, hence assumes the fan is off at 45C or lower. I wonder why noone else complains about overcooling. Maybe it occurs with T2330 processor only. Note: setting polling_frequency had no effect so far. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

B0 rather than AF at the end). However, on my machine, which is an Acer 5720 with 2GB, the combination of BIOS v. 1.34 with the Ubuntu Hardy 2.6.24-16-generic kernel, controls the fan without the assistance of any special boot flags, or the script. I have suspended the thing to RAM, and I have hibernated it, and the fan has continued to work more or less as I would expect it to on each occasion that I have restarted. So it looks as though BIOS v. 1.34 finally fixes it. Thankyou Acer! The DSDT for v. 1.34 is compiled with the Micro$oft ASL compiler, and gives syntax errors with the Intel compiler. I fixed them on my system, but I don't think they matter, since the fan appeared to work before I had established that the DSDT wouldn't go through 'iasl'. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9167 --- Comment #71 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-03-26 11:57 --- My experience with BIOS v1.32 and Ubuntu Hardy (Kernel 2.6.24-12-generic x86_64) is as follows. 1. The DSDT is compiled with the Microsoft ASL compiler, and has all the errors that the v1.31 lacks. However, there is new code. I cleaned it up using the v1.31 source as a model. 2. When booted with ec_intr=0 (see comment 54), the fan is on all the time, at the slowest speed, even though the temperature in the thermal_zone is below the threshold. The fan didn't speed up, and the thermal_zone temperature was not updated, when I pushed the temperature higher by loading the CPU. 3. When booted without ec_intr=0, the fan stayed off, unless I turned it on (see comment 62). 4. When booted with ec_intr=0 and acpi_osi=!Linux, the fan stayed on all the time. However, the thermal_zone value temperature was updated, and the fan sped up, when I pushed the temperature higher by loading the CPU. When I took the load off, the temperature dropped, and the fan slowed down. However, the fan never stopped altogether. 5. By ear, I can detect 4 different fan speeds, which seem to come in to play at 50, 66, 74 and 80 C, when I set the temperature in thermal_zone manually. Someone with better hearing may be able to identify more! 6. Once the fan is running, shut-off temperatures are a few degrees lower, eg. 45. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Acer America does not provide Linux drivers or support. I do not know of any plans to provide Linux drivers , BIOS updates or support in the future. You can try checking with the vendors of the internal components to see if they offer Linux drivers. I'm sorry I am unable to assist with this issue.

I apologize but I have checked the records and there are no available BIOS updates for the system. Also, Acer only supports the pre-installed hardware and software for the system so we do not have information if the BIOS v1.32 will work. If you prefer to download the BIOS update, please note that the original BIOS flash will not be available from Acer. You may download it at your own discretion.

It is an archive containing a script and binary for controlling the CPU fan on an Acer 5720 or similar under a 64 bit Linux. Apologies in advance if this is considered an abuse of the Kernel Bug Tracker. To use it: -Unpack with tar xjf acer5720_fan_64.tar.bz2 -Adjust tunable parameters in acer5720_fancontrol.sh to your taste. Copy mempat and acer5720_fancontrol.sh somewhere convenient, bearing in mind that acer5720_fancontrol.sh needs to find mempat in its PATH. Arrange for acer5720_fancontrol.sh to be executed at start-up, eg. (as on my Ubuntu) kicking it off in the background from /etc/rc.local.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9167 --- Comment #62 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-03-15 08:09 --- I have a workaround that works for me, with x86_64 2.6.22-14-generic (Ubuntu Gutsy) and 2.6.24-12-generic (Ubuntu Hardy). Here is what I did. 1. I installed BIOS v1.31. I don't know if it is crucial, but the DSDT has been compiled with the Intel rather than the Microsoft compiler and the gibberish in _OSC has gone along with the myriad of warnings and errors in the earlier versions. 2. I turn the fan on by writing 0x4040 to 0x7F6BCEAF in /dev/mem 3. I turn the fan off by writing 0x2828 to 0x7F6BCEAF in /dev/mem The bytes correspond to DTS1 and DTS2 in NVST (from reading the dis-assembled DSDT), the values from which the temperature in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/TZ01/temperature are derived. I deduce that these locations are supposed to have the temperatures in C for the two CPU cores. Furthermore, since there are no other methods in the DSDT that reference them, I deduce that the Embedded Controller is supposed to update them. Since it must be able to do so in 32 bit mode, perhaps the 64 bit kernel prevents it? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9167 --- Comment #59 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-03-06 01:18 --- Stephane, what do you mean by Temperature in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/temperature was updated? Did it change continuously during use or was it just different from 0 C after boot? Was fan properly controlled (started and stopped as needed) or was it just running all time? In this second case there's no news: TZ is known to be correctly set to the real temp at boot. So if you reboot your machine when it is already hot, you will read something different from 0 C. But from then TZ is not updated anymore (so fan keeps running even if you CPU reaches 10 C). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
