Running the sensors command (ls-sensors package) gave me this output:
Adapter: ISA adapter
Exhaust : 1798 RPM (min = 1800 RPM, max = 6200 RPM)
TB0T: +23.0°C
TC0D: +57.2°C
TC0P: +53.0°C
TM0P: +47.0°C
TN0P: +49.2°C
TN1P: +50.2°C
TTF0: +60.0°C
Th0H: +54.5°C
Th0S: +54.0°C

coretemp-isa-0000

Core 0: +58.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1: +60.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Can anyone tell me, if that is good or bad?
Hi! I just liberated my Macbook (2,1) a couple of days ago and that looks perfectly fine to me. I find that when I've got a few applications running the core temps get up to around 70C, but the fan speed increases and brings it down again quickly. It's not too loud, even when the fan is on full.
Btw, I updated the Macbook Wiki page with some info on how to make the touchpad behave better :)
I just added a few lines about how to reconfigure the keyboard to be able to type e.g. '@'
Interesting - I haven't encountered any issues with the keyboard. On mine, @ is simply 'shift+2' and the 'US-macintosh' keyboard configuration seems to have everything right (as far as I can tell).
Hmm, I can't even recall the option to choose DK-macintosh, but next time I trisquelise a MacBook I will look for that option.
Is there a Dvorak version of the Apple keyboard in Libreboot and Trisquel?
The possible keyboards of libreboot are easily discovered: Download a zipfile containing the roms specific to your comnputer at: https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/libreboot.org/release/stable/20160907/rom/grub/
Unzip it and see the possible roms - the name reveals if it is qwerty, dvorak etc
Usually Macbooks are too hot, so 50-60 celcius are normal for that one. Also if you try to see HD or FullHD videos, temperature can raise to 70-75 celcius with 6000rpm, and a lot of loudness.
So far I'll leave it as is, but I saw that a new fan is about 14$. I might invest in one ocassionally...
That's a normal temperature for the Macbook 2,1. It does thermal throttle once it gets to 70C which is pretty easy to do on the 2,1.
The fan on the Macbook doesn't have a proper intake so I highly suggest drilling holes in the bottom where the fan is. It's a pretty easy improvement and it really helped mine with the thermal throttling and now I can watch 1080p videos without it stuttering. To drill holes in it just open up the Macbook and remove the fan and drill a few holes from the inside out, then clean up all the shavings, and then put it back together. I also replaced the thermal paste on mine but it didn't help nearly as much as the holes so I wouldn't bother doing that unless you have some paste laying around.
