Kernel level temperature throttling...


I have a problem in that my processor overheats whenever I get it to do anything demanding. It does this because I have the ondemand cpu-freq govener working, but the processor has no temperature throttling (Sempron 3000+). Someone told me that there is a module for kernel level temperature throttling, which seems reasonable considering that ACPI seems to be able to read off the temperatures fairly easily.

Is there any such module, or anything I can do to get some sort of temperature throttling?

Check linux-on-laptops for install notes including kernel config files for AMD Semprom300+. Compare your kernel config with http://www.dimensionalstorm.net/v2405us/. There is a mini howto hibernate and resume by cwwilson and threads discussing cpu throttling and overheating on this forum too.
Good luck.
