Overheating on Ubuntu 12.04
- by mati
I have a Dell Inspiron Q17R with two graphic cards and I noticed that it is overheating. I installed Bumblebee, Jupiter and Flashblock, and I followed this guide as well, but it still got up to 74C.
Is there anything more I can do? It still doesn't really seem to be working well and the fan keeps spinning really fast.
After performing the following test:
sensors
in the terminal, this is what I got:
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1: +75.0°C (crit = +100.0°C)
temp2: +75.0°C (crit = +100.0°C)
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Physical id 0: +68.0°C (high = +86.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 0: +68.0°C (high = +86.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1: +65.0°C (high = +86.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
it doesn't look good.
