point temperature, even the OEM/BIOS did not export one. I very much liked that
and also tried to make it happen. That's perfect for e.g. get a silent laptop
(define passive below active ones to avoid fan activity) or to workaround
thermal shutdown problems. Finally there were some workarounds like that for
specific machines in this area. But better gather some more info first, this
might not be needed.
