Hmm, I'm not sure why you need to unload the thinkpad acpi driver. Can you force fan control mode with
options thinkpad_acpi fan_control=1 in a /etc/modprobe.d/ .conf file and this will configure the driver at boot time. I also suggest enabling the intel-pstate driver. Ubuntu currently has a patch to turn this off by default, and it can be enabled by changing /etc/default/grub and set the following: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash intel_pstate=enable" then run: sudo update-grub and reboot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/955287 Title: Ubuntu should handle "hot" CPUs by taking preemptive action and warning users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/955287/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
