First of all, thanks for your time. > One bug report can track a problem across several packages, so there's no need for multiple reports.
Sorry for the noise :-) > If you can reproduce it with Hirsute I can reproduce the problem using linux-image-generic 5.10.0.14.16 from hirsute in a tty. To be sure I did it right, those are the steps I followed: 1. added this repo to the list of repos: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hirsute-proposed restricted main multiverse universe 2. updated apt list and installed those packages: linux-headers-generic/hirsute-proposed linux-modules-5.10.0-14-generic/hirsute-proposed linux-modules-extra-5.10.0-14-generic/hirsute-proposed linux-image-5.10.0-14-generic/hirsute-proposed 3. Rebooted, choose kernel 5.10 from advanced list in grub 4. On gnome login prompt, switched to tty with ctrl+alt+F3 5. Check kernel and packages: $ uname -a Linux bestia3 5.10.0-14-generic #15-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 29 15:10:03 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ dpkg -l | grep 5.10.0 ii linux-headers-5.10.0-14 5.10.0-14.15 all Header files related to Linux kernel version 5.10.0 ii linux-headers-5.10.0-14-generic 5.10.0-14.15 amd64 Linux kernel headers for version 5.10.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP ii linux-headers-generic 5.10.0.14.16 amd64 Generic Linux kernel headers ii linux-image-5.10.0-14-generic 5.10.0-14.15 amd64 Signed kernel image generic ii linux-modules-5.10.0-14-generic 5.10.0-14.15 amd64 Linux kernel extra modules for version 5.10.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP ii linux-modules-extra-5.10.0-14-generic 5.10.0-14.15 amd64 Linux kernel extra modules for version 5.10.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP Now, calling 'sensors' from console still causes the problem, i.e. the output of sensors hangs a couple of seconds just after printing 'amdgpu-pci-0100' and the fans start spinning. The only difference with kernel 5.10 wrt kernel 5.8 is that I don't see the kernel error messages directly into the tty, but they are present in dmesg: [ 25.039603] vboxdrv: TSC mode is Invariant, tentative frequency 2592005345 Hz [ 25.039607] vboxdrv: Successfully loaded version 6.1.18 (interface 0x00300000) [ 25.251013] VBoxNetFlt: Successfully started.

Switching back to previous kernel solves temporary the problem, i.e. fans are always off with light desktop work. The new behavior is really annoying and I guess not healthy for the fans. I'm on latest Dell bios, with every other package updated. Di something in the thermal policies change between those two kernels? Is it possible to go back to previous behavior ?
