[Bug 227360] New: After first reboot system shuts down due to overheating
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227360 Summary: After first reboot system shuts down due to overheating Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: daugirdas@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com The laptop is Acer Aspire 1522WLMi (3000+ AMD64, 512MB ram, Nvidia go video card). The laptop was running 10.0 and 10.1 just fine in terms of power management (however there were serious issues with ubuntu). The system booted from amd64 install DVD and completed the package upgrades. After restart it started to sync with ZENworks and immediately powered off. The /var/log/messages have a line saying that critical temperature (80C) was reached - shutting down. I rebooted and same happened 4 times. I am afraid to be forced to buy a mac for Christmas as this one might just burn. Before one poweroff I managed to attempt loading some kernel modules. Apparently acpi is screwed in the new SMP kernel on this hardware. /proc/acpi/cpu/ says that my CPU doesn't support anything at all. Well it can't throttle but it can run at 1800, 1600 and 800Mhz. Now it was forced at full 1800. Acpi-powersave failed to load - device not found or busy. powersave -c also failed to get any information - more errors (1). I am sorry not to attach anything but at this state I just couldn't do it. Please let me know how to complete set up and eradicate this problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227360 ------- Comment #2 from daugirdas@gmail.com 2006-12-12 15:48 MST ------- Ok, I managed to complete the installation by passing echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor This made the system really slow, but the setup completed. Without this command which I had to enter literally as quick as I can type there is no way I would have gone through. Once the system rebooted things seem to be back to normal. The governor used is ondemand (default). System tends to run at 800 MHz mostly and the performance during normal package updates is really poor. Nonetheless the system is alive! I haven't done anything extremely cpu intensive so I don't know if I can go above 80C. Currently 51C is my highest hit. I am very concerned about this issue since the overheating problems plagued me for 1 year with ubuntu x64 before I dumped it. The bug is described at https://launchpad.net/bugs/22336 (still open). If you get an idea what happened there please fell free to leave a comment. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/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.

Will check. Is it correct that the powernow-k8 module already was loaded? Maybe you can remember whether cpufreq_ondemand module also got loaded? Only installation should be affected by this, right? After installation and configuration went through, cpufreq works?
The laptop was running 10.0 and 10.1 just fine in terms of power management Hmm, cpufreq scaling at installation was added at 10.2 (even not working for some machines), so it should be the same than 10.0 and 10.1. You should clean up your fan slots, that might also help.

The problem is that hal/powersaved is started after the final configuration is done which could take an endless amount of time. Some laptops rely on power management (probably more in future) and at this point of time cpu frequency should already work. Holger is hal enough for 10.2 to activate cpufreq properly, (anyway it's not that sever not much laptops should be affected and overheating must not kill hardware, in the end it's still the OS shutting down the machine, but we should implement this probably sooner or later, this should work for 10.3, reducing severity). Jiri, what is started after first reboot before second yast configuration state, cpufreq should already be set up probably here. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/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.

No, you still need to tell it which governor to use. Just use something like this: #!/bin/sh set_governor() { dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.Hal \ /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer \ org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.CPUFreq.SetCPUFreqGovernor string:$1 } set_governor ondemand [ "$?" != "0" ] && set_governor userspace -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/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.
