Also tell me if I am risking my system by running with ACPI but not letting the thermal module run. On an HP, I'd say yes. There should always be HW switching off if it gets too hot, but HP laptops do their thermal management through ACPI only. So it could be that you constantly run at 90C, which might not destroy your HW, but shorten

I will check for a BIOS update I will wait a bit. If there really is a new BIOS, please tell me if you still see this and then upload acpidump of the new BIOS. It does not make sense to work on old code.
Hm, this is probably another problem than the I/O APIC problem I forwared you some info. But it could be related in a way that on both systems the ACPI code is going wrong paths (on the HP nx6325 showing wrong trip points, all 16C, here returning wrong temperature). If you can see the negative temperature value in dmesg (then we could calc back for what we are searching in the DSDT) or paste some output of related lines, this could also help. -- 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.
