An audio device is active 100,0% of the time:
hwC0D0 IDT 92HD81B1X5 

Hay un dispositivo USB activo el 100,0% del tiempo:
/sys/bus/usb/devices/2-1

Sugerencia: active la autosuspensión de los dispositivos USB que no sean

dispositivos de entrada presionando la tecla U.


Sugerencia: aumente el tiempo de "reescritura sucia" ("dirty writeback") de la VM

de 5,00 a 15 segundos:

  echo 1500 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs 

Esto activa el disco con menor frecuencia en actividades de VM de fondo.

Desactive el encendido a través de la red con el siguiente 

comando:

  ethtool -s eth0 wol d 

El encendido por red mantiene phy activo, lo que consume

energía extra.

Sugerencia: active el organizador de la CPU ahorrador de energía

ejecutando el siguiente comando: 

  echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings

o presionando la tecla C.

Sugerencia: active el gestor de energía del vínculo SATA ALPM así:

  echo min_power > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy

o presionando la tecla S.

Sugerencia: active el modo de ahorro de energía del audio de alta definición

ejecutando este comando: 

   echo 1 > /sys/module/snd_hda_intel/parameters/power_save 

o pasando power_save=1 como parámetro del módulo.

Sugerencia: desactive el guardián NMI ejecutando el siguiente comando:

   echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog 

El guardián NMI es un mecanismo de depuración que detecta bloqueos.

Sugerencia: active la opción del núcleo CONFIG_INOTIFY.

Esta opción permite que los programas esperen a que se produzcan

cambios en los archivos en lugar de estar en espera activa.

What could I do to have less temperatures? Note that high temperature it's not related to CPU freqs (on idle 0~4%).

Thank you,

Hi, Enrico

I've faced with the same problem after updating to kernel 3.0, but after update to Linux kernel 3.0.2-1 everything is ok. I think you should do pacman -Syu and hope this simple solution will help you. Good luck!

The high temps you're having are caused by your discrete graphic card I believe. Here's my setup:

lspci | grep -i vga
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Manhattan [Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Series] (rev ff)

I had the same issue. My temps while my hp pavilion g62 was just idle were ~70C and the fan was always on and running on high speed. I've tried many ways to get my discrete card under control so I can use both of them but none of the things I've tried ever worked for me (using switcheroo).

However, I've managed to get my ATI card off using an acpi call. Build the package, it's in AUR load the module and see if any of the calls works for you. Now, with my discrete card being disabled in combination with properly configured laptop-tools my system is just perfect .

Current temps:

Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:       +40.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +90.0°C)
Core 2:       +42.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +90.0°C)

I'm running thunderbird, FF, skype, gedit and a terminal at the moment.

Ok, now with my discrete graphics card turned OFF my sensors on idle are:

acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +57.0°C  

radeon-pci-0100
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1:       -128.0°C

Could we reach colder temperatures?

Thanks a lot!!!

have you tried adding pcie_aspm=force to your grub boot loader?

this worked for me on an HP laptop.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that I'm using it too and it slightly decreased the temps on my G62 pavilion laptop. In addition, do you have laptop-tools installed and configured properly? Is your CPU freq scaling or it is always on its highest freq step?

Hi,

thank you for the hints. I tried to add pcie_aspm=force but it doesn't works. Seems that my laptop doesn't support that feature at all.

I see CPU frequencies scaling between min and max values (933~2540 MHz).

I don't know if it care, but I could say that if I run a video on VLC (fullscreen or not) the temperatures reach 71~76 degrees.

Thank you!
