Hi, The CPU on my EeePC laptop has been slowly overheating since yesterday (24 April), shortly after performing an update. The last update I did was on Tuesday (21 April), but I do not think the problem was present after that. The sensors seem to report flawed information, at least regarding the fan speed: it is reported to be around 4000 rpm. The fan does spin (I can hear it if I hold my ear really close to the chassis), but definitely not at 4000 rpm (I remember from past issues that I shouldn't need any effort to hear it at that speed). The reported speed also sometimes drops to zero without any continuity. I mention that the overheating is "slow", I mean that I can work around 15 minutes before the computer shuts down, and that, idle, it takes about 1 hour to reach critical temperature. If the fan was not spinning at all, it would be 2 minutes. Also, I could not get any form of manual control over the fan with pwm1_enable set to 1. Booting on a previous kernel did not help. If I boot on a different distribution or on windows, the OS does not see the fan speed sensor, and the computer overheats slowly all the same. But as I said, I already had similar problems with this computer (the fan was not spinning at all, then), and I remember that it showed across distributions in the same way. If I remember, I concluded back then that something had set a bios flag that prevented the bios from handling the fan properly for other OSes. I have uploaded some information about my hardware on https://gist.github.com/ThibautVerron/27da7b4da3940f9894c0 . Does anyone have any clue as to how to investigate (and hopefully fix) the issue?
