Hello!

I have found the source of my problem:
I've not a wifi card integrated in my laptop and so I'm using a usb dongle with ndiswrapper driver. And it's when this usb key is plugged that the acpi temperature is growing and it don't happens if it's a classic usb key (storage for example) which is plugged.

So we have changed the problem!
But it is not resolved :(

So do you have any idea for this problem??

Thank you for your help!

Since there are really lots of drivers, I just guess you didn't compile
the right ones when building your kernel.

That's two completely different things.

?!? How does "top" come into play here?!?

OK, so ACPI temperature zone support is working.

If that's why you posted top output: It doesn't depend on absolute
load. Maybe your debian box enables throttling, either ACPI P-States,
or CPUfreq. You might want to play with the cpufreq ondemand governor
(there's also an alternative implementation, read the docs of those
kernel options) or cpufreqd.

CPUfreq, see above. And it certainly won't make CPU use better (it
throttles) -- but might lower the temperature.
