So here they are: 1) uname -a gave: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209274/
2) dmesg.log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209292/ (But I am not sure what a fresh boot means. I turned laptop off and again on and after that I typed the comand in the Terminal and searched for that file and pasted it). 3) lspci-vvnn.log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209288/ I have no idea how to turn on or off that Laptop mode stuff; to be sure it is off, perhaps you could tell me how. Thanks and hope a solution can be found to those clicks and to the high temperatures. I just want to mention that the click I can hear whenever I turn the laptop off (shut down), that kind of click can be heard repeatedly, many times in a minute, at each 3 or 4 seconds, when the laptop is running on batery only, with the AC adapter unplugged. The temperature is 47 Celsius, after writing this email only, no other applications (except power management I guess). --- On Fri, 7/3/09, Philip Muskovac <yo...@gmx.net> wrote: From: Philip Muskovac <yo...@gmx.net> Subject: [Bug 394826] Re: HDD unusual high temperature and activity in Ubuntu Jaunty To: emailstude...@yahoo.com Date: Friday, July 3, 2009, 6:59 AM Ok, It seems your issue might be driver related and so I don't think I can help you any more. I'll reset the bug status to new so that somebody else can take over the triaging. As for the load cycles in ubuntu: Laptop Mode is DISABLED BY DEFAULT in Ubuntu, So if somebody has an issue like that it's because that enabled laptop_mode themselves. Also note that laptop_mode should only be invoked while on battery power where the spin down of a hard drive can improve battery life. It would also help if you could please include the following additional information (pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team: 1. Please include the output of the command "uname -a" in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture. 2. Please run the command "dmesg > dmesg.log" after a fresh boot and attach the resulting file "dmesg.log" to this bug report. 3. Please run the command "sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log" and attach the resulting file "lspci-vvnn.log" to this bug report. Thank you in advance. ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: Incomplete => New -- HDD unusual high temperature and activity in Ubuntu Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394826 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. Status in Ubuntu: New Bug description: My hard disk temperature is pretty high (above 45 Celsius degrees) even if I just read an article without any other activity. Also, I can hear the noise of the hard disk permanently, at every 3 or 4 seconds it is moving. I have a Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo Mobile V6545 laptop with Ubuntu 9.04. So: iotop -o (after previously installed iotop) gives me, for a fraction of a second, commands like: gnome power management, kjournald, pidgin and one or two more. But each dissapeared very quickly. The Command column is empty now, for a long time has been empty. The temperature (sudo hddtemp /dev/sda) is 48 Celsius degrees now. I remarked (repeating it) that the temperature starts decreasing after I unplugg the AC adapter so that the laptop is running on battery only. But it was 58 Celsius degree, with Pidgin running only. The annoying click of the hard disk can be heard at each 3 or 4 seconds. The hard disk is WD3200BEVT. Its specification may be found at http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=2670&p_created=#jumper. -- HDD unusual high temperature and activity in Ubuntu Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394826 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
