But I noticed a problem, the CPU temperature will be very high when the load is high. Especially while I am building C++ programs. It shut down for even 3 times while I was building Firefox/Thunderbird, just because of high temperature (86.5C). One of my friends told me, "FreeBSD doesn't support your ACPI well" but I noticed that while I'm not compiling ports, the temperature will be not too high. Just now I'm building LLVM, here's what I've seen: > sysctl hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature: 84.5C > pkill make > sysctl hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature: 67.5C I'm using Dell Vostro 3400 laptop PC with FreeBSD 9.1-RC1. > uname -a FreeBSD bsd.laptop.mike 9.1-RC1 FreeBSD 9.1-RC1 #0: Tue Aug 14 04:25:06 UTC 2012 root@farrell.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 There's my dmesg message: http://slexy.org/view/s21b7xTTsu Anyone knows how to fix this problem? Thank you. Yours Sincerely, Mike Manilone
