[Bug 1285812] Re: [Acer 5755G] Laptop overheats and shuts down

 

Adam Niedling, please don't be rude.

Despite this, bumblebee is now officially supported in Ubuntu since
Saucy as per https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bumblebee , so you
would be welcome to test with it, to see if it addresses your issue.

As well, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-3.14-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
