@ Idle sign - since not so long ago. So it's definitely recent changes that came down.

Being a "regular user", I generally trust the release people to get it right - I am currently running the machine atop a cooler - which at least makes it usable.

Temperatures are still around what I quoted... but before I bought the machine - it would freeze up... or not boot due to heat during the last mini-heatwave...

Although I did notice it getting rather warm around the CPU fan outlet.. but I would have expected that to ramp the fan if it WAS getting warm...

When was the last batch of acpi patches released?
