I downgraded the Kernel Version to 4.2.4-1-ARCH and the temperature still goes up to 98°C. I try to investigate more to get an idea of why this is happening.
Hi Ralf,
I am not really sure if this problem is directly related to the kernel, but after 2 years of constantly updating my Archlinux it is the first time that the CPU temperature get up to 98°C if I compile stuff or render some 3D scenes and I am sure that this does not happen with the previous kernel version.
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
say powersave
I will try to install the previous kernel.
Best regards, Dennis
Hi Dennis,
are you sure that it's related to the kernel and not to something else that was updated?
Did you run
$ top
and
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
to ensure that everything is as expected?
If I would run upowerd on my machine, it would use 100% CPU resources, when an iPad is connected to an USB port.
Regards, Ralf
