My T60p overheating problem with 7.10 appears to be solved. I did a BIOS upgrade to version 2.21 from the IBM/Lenovo website. Released 2008/02/13. http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-63027
The temperature skyrocketed when I ran a cpuburn test (up past 80C for 20 mins) but it wouldn't lock up. Minutes prior to the update, the machine would lock up in the 60-65C range. It also appears the fan is running about 600rpm faster by default. Verified by "cat /proc/acpi/ibm/fan". I no longer have to physically set the fan to speed "7" anymore. This leads me to believe it wasn't solely a CPU temperature issue, as the machine can run MUCH warmer now without lockup. To all out there experiencing this issue, check for a BIOS upgrade - it just may fix the problem. Should the problem reoccur I will post up. -- CPU overheats during high usage "throttling <not supported>" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/22336 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
