Hey guys, I need to cool my laptop down, I have an IBM r51 with SLED on it. I have a 3 hr battery and my laptop goes hot 40 minutes in. Can someone point me to some tools to adjust the fan and temp?
In its simplest form, you may be able to write to files in /proc/acpi/fan (setting fan speed) or /proc/acpi/processor (setting processor states). However, I'd suggest finding out why it goes hot. Some application chewing up all CPU power? -`J' -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
