Thanks for the hint. I did that today and after a few minutes of video streaming (www.tagesschau.de) "top" showed me the now well-known "kidle_inject" processes but the box held out for a bit over ten minutes, which is more but not significantly more than before. Then it switched off. I booted the 3.16 kernel, reloaded the same video stream (it is available for two hours), and it played the full 15 minutes without any kidle_injects appearing. And without powering off the machine, of course.
This time "top" (under 3.19) never showed me any processes (firefox, plugin-container) going anywhere near 100% of CPU load; everything remained under 50% most of the time, more or less as with the old kernel. And still those kidle_inject processes come up. Could it be a false alarm (despite the very warm air coming from the fan slots)? I know that kidle_inject generates no CPU load, just blocks other processes from taking a CPU. Could it still have influence on the temperature sensor and the fan? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1452421 Title: ubuntu 15.04 overheats To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1452421/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
