Hi,

Before entering a bug, I thougt it might be good to drop this here.

Since install of OS11.0B2 on my Acer laptop 1710 (Pentium 4 at 2.8 GHz, 1,5 GB memory), the reported processor temp is way too high. Simply opening one session and running only gkrellm, proc temp gets up til 73 degr. Celsius; the fan is running fast accordingly.

Even without a session, only the graphical login displayed, one can hear the fan speeding up, until after one or two minutes it gets at it top speed.

gkrellm reports virtually no processor activity, so - is the temperature reported incorrect? or - what is heating the processor up, if it has almost nothing to do?

Before 11B2 it ran 10.3 without these findings.

I'm eager to hear your comments!

What does

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/cpufreq/scaling_governor

show?

Are modules processor and thermal loaded?

Entering

l /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*

gives

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0: totaal 0 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 0 mei 4 19:02 ./ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 0 mei 4 19:02 ../ drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 0 mei 4 19:05 cpuidle/ -r-------- 1 root root 4096 mei 4 19:05 crash_notes drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 mei 4 19:05 microcode/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 mei 4 19:05 thermal_throttle/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 mei 4 19:05 topology/

so there' s no cpufreq dir.

boot.msg has

Loading CPUFreq modules (CPUFreq not supported)

so that's maybe the reason/cause that cpufreq isn't there?

Maybe you're processor does not and never did support CPUFreq. Can you please also post the content of 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' and 'cpufreq-info' (maybe you have to install the cpufrequtils package).
