Libreboot x60 temp cause shutdown
What's wrong with my Libreboot x60?
if i run sudo stress for 3minutes at 100% cpu on my x60s with stock Lenovo BIOS the temperature keeps around 70 C
if i open a Youtube video or an Ardour project or a game(i don't remember which one)from the repos the cpu and temperature on the Libreboot x60 goes mad causing shutdown.
Basically i cannot do anything useful.
Both have Trisquel 7
i thought that the problem was powertop but it doesen't look so.
i've just tried the same stress command configuration and the Libreboot shut down after few minutes.The temperature difference(xsensors)was around 25C.I think the issue is caused by the Libreboot BIOS cause i had a similar problem with Trisquel 6 (Live) as well.
Edit= after trying various distros,the last linux Mint boot it up without problems,but the issue is still there after stressing the CPU.
the laptop shut down even when i was trying to boot Debian from the Grub payload commandline.
See this thread on the libreboot m/l https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2015-05/msg00017.html
Ask there, or Gluglug if you bought from them if that doesn't resolve your problems.
I've flashed the rom by myself,i ddidn't bought it from Gluglug.
I've tried various distros(Gnewsense,Musix,Debian,Trisquel 6,even Mint).The only two that booted in Live mode without problem were Trisquel 6 and Mint.
At one point i kept the laptop on the Libreboot menu few times for 5/10 minutes and it was shutting down as well due to overheating.
After i've done a proper fan cleaning with an aridust can the problem seemed to be solved.
Then again shutdown while i was using:
Icecat
Abrowser
DosBox emulator
for the browers seems to be caused by Gnash
let's see what's happend next
