[Bug 321578] Re: Toshiba satellite L350 fan and temperature problem in Ubuntu 8.10

[Amit Kotlovski]

I have a Toshiba Satellite A305-S6898, and I share the same problem.
The problem is that there is no temperature reading for the CPU, that's why it shows 0°C like the original bug reporter says.

After installing lm-sensors, and running 'sensors-detect' the module
'coretemp' was suggested to be loaded.

Loading it I now get the following output from 'sensors':

$ /usr/bin/sensors
acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +0.0°C  (crit = +92.0°C)                  

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:      +52.0°C  (high = +85.0°C, crit = +85.0°C)  

coretemp-isa-0001
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 1:      +51.0°C  (high = +85.0°C, crit = +85.0°C)

running 'acpi -t':

$ /usr/bin/acpi -t
     Battery 0: Full, 100%
     Thermal 0: ok, 0.0 degrees C

I also tried adding 'acpi_osi="Linux" ' to the kernel options, as this
was said to help with this issue, but it does not solve the problem in
my case.

With no temperature reading, the fan does not work properly.

Why is the CPU temperature reading module 'coretemp' not loaded as part of a normal Ubuntu laptop installation?
Is it automatically detected and loaded in Jaunty?
