My experience with my previous thinkpad is that the laptop runs cooler |
| 2 |
with a 2.4 kernel than 2.6. My iBook runs rather hot for a 1.2 GHz |
| 3 |
processor, 46-48C even when the system is practically idle. The |
| 4 |
hard-disk is particularly hot at ~50C. Hence I want to try the 2.4 |
| 5 |
kernel and see if it makes any difference to the heating problem. |
