15 the trip_points cannot be set manually, since the trip_points file is
16 readonly
17 for the moment my problem is that i cannot make the script to read the acpi
18 temperature.
19 for now i'd suggest for you to add some sensor monitor, like kima for kde,
20 or some others and use them to identify the acpi temperature. when your
21 thermal reaches 80° you'd have to set the cpufreq to powersave so that the
22 processor goes to the lowest freq and the thermal
23 temperature goes down. the console command to do this is:
24 cpufreq-set -g powersave
25 when the temperature goes around 60°-62° you can reset the conservative
26 governor so that you will have the processor go faster when you need it.
27 cpufreq-set -g conservative.
28
29 as soon as i finish the scripts to automatically adjust the processor based
30 on thermal readings i'll post them to you.
