[Bug 262550] Re: WARNING: Intrepid might burn down MacBook Pro

 

Still a problem on Ubuntu 16.04 on a brand new Macbook Pro 2015.

Under OS X, supercool, under Ubuntu, super hot! Even without running
anything, just boot it, login and wait, it will become hot.

This problem have what, 20 years? For God's sake! Time to fix this once
for all, Ubuntu should keep a Macbook cool, just like OS X does, by
default.

  WARNING: Intrepid might burn down MacBook Pro

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.27-1-generic

  Testing Ubuntu 8.10 Alpha 4 64-Bit on a MacBook Pro rev. 3. Installing
  today's updates, the MacBook gets extremely hot and automatically goes
  into standby. This looks like an emergency standby caused by the EFI
  or something because it got overheated. Unless you put a metal plate
  or something under it, the fan runs on highest level at full power,
  which is not the usual.

  Is there a tool you can see the CPU temperature with?
