[Bug 314001] Re: ACPI: Unable to turn cooling device 'on' (Quadcore-AMD64, Ubuntu64)

[Al Bogner]

Yes, I considered this, but I can't believe the the cpu is too hot. When
I switch on the pc after it was unused for hours, I see this message
immediately when I try to install xubuntu, also it doesn't stop here. I
can go on for a while, but then the installation stops with an
useless/undefined message and starts the live cd. I tried it very often
and it is always the same with xubuntu.

I tried element OS, which is based on xubuntu. The chance is a lot
better, that I can install it, but it could be that the installation
halts. And the last time it stopped during the nvidia-install.

With Opensuse I get the message too, but the pc could run for hours. The
last time it shutdown during an update.

It looks like I am very close to a limit of, don't know what. Maybe
there is a relation the the room temperature. It is 23°C outside now.
The room has about the same temperature.

The bios always mention temperatures, which are far away to be critical.

After the element os installation I have a system temp of 40°C and a cpu
temp of 45°C according to the bios.

Do you think the bios temperatures are wrong? At least after I switch
the pc on, I trust the temperatures, when it says below 40°C and then
the warning with 121°C also appears. It is always 121°C, very strange.
