Damn, no edit in launchpad.
Ok there is one error. For my suggested values it has to be:
sudo echo -n "115:0:100:60:0" > /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/trip_points
I'm not too sure about the interactions between powernowd, cpufreq and throttling. In theory a passive trip-point of e.g. 80 and a critical point of 90 should be sufficient and put less strain on the hardware. I don't know whether pownernod prevents throttling. And what about cpufreq throttling? Is it as effective as Thermal Monitor?

I'd suggest everybody to disable powernowd since the kernel gouvernors are more straighforward (http:// www.thinkwiki. org/wiki/ How_to_ make_use_ of_Dynamic_ Frequency_ Scaling)

Btw, if your temperature is not read correctly, don't forget to enable polling temperature, as said before. (http:// acpi.sourceforg e.net/documenta tion/thermal. html)
