Toshiba Satellite C640 overheating problem and shutdown
Hi, I am having an overheating problem on Toshiba Satellite C640. The problem is more acute after upgrading the kernel to kernel-PAE-3.6.10-2.fc17.i686.
This happens even when there are minimal applications running.
sensors output acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +74.0°C (crit = +110.0°C) coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +67.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +90.0°C) Core 2: +72.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +90.0°C)
If i start with kernel-PAE-3.6.7-4.fc17.i686 the overheating is comparatively less.
The load is also low:
