The thermal control on my AMD Turion HP 6125 laptop doesn't work quite right.=20 The fan often gets "stuck" on whatever speed it had initially and the temperature readings also often do not change after a few minutes of running. Doing "rmmod thermal; modprobe thermal" makes the temperature readings in /etc/acpi/thermal/ start updating again, at least for a few minutes when I have to repeat the procedure. The kernel is Ubuntu's 2.6.12-6-amd64-k8. Maybe I should mention that I have to boot the kernel with "noapic" to get it to run at all. Does anyone know what might be causing this? - Johan =09 ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page=20 http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs=20 =20 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practic= es Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & Q= A Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf
