Hi, I have the same problem on my TP R60. Adding (127, 66, 32767) at the end to /etc/thinkfan.conf lead me to have the fan running at disengaed by auto. This results in seltem having temparute over 85°C.
Further I found, that the VID is to high by default. If I set the governer to userspace 1.833GHz and reduce the VID using wrmsr -p0 [1] 0x0199 0x0b20 The temparature goes not over 65°C. The governer "ondemand" switches the MSR 0x199 between 0x0613, 0x081c, and 0x0b28. This 0x0b28 should be reduced to 0x0b20 and every thing would fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/751689 Title: ThinkPads overheat due to slow fans when on 'auto' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/751689/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
