Just an update on the tests you asked me to run: until now I could not get the live USB to boot (it hangs at some point), and I can't let it heat idle to see what happens, because it reboots after a while. The fan does sound a bit louder, but this is only my inaccurate ear measuring. I had to go to work, I will try troubleshooting why the boot fails this evening, and if I still cannot boot, I'll try to start the live USB with a hot CPU, to see if the fan goes berserk as it should.
I place my laptop on a... "thing" with a largish fan inside, which can plug to one of the USB sockets of the laptop, or to a mains-usb converter (I do the later). It keeps the base of the laptop cool.
The internal fan cools well only the CPU. Ram and HD can get quite hot.
If I can't do this, I place the laptop on 1 centimeter pegs, not just on a table, so that air can circulate.
Hm, I didn't make my desktop box, I bought it :) Much more powerful than lappy on stilts, and easier to get at the dust bunnies inside it. -Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
