    Red face karmic NVIDIA GPU OVERHEATING!

    Since karmic, my toshiba laptop won't load its custom and fixed DSDT, therefore the laptop runs the GPU as high as 120 degrees. Is there any easy way to load a custom dsdt and avoid overheating?

    Re: karmic NVIDIA GPU OVERHEATING!

    I have the same problem with a Toshiba P100. I saw a possible solution here:

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/451337

    although this refers to Acer laptops. Someone near the bottom says it also fixed his Toshiba m105...

    Link to patched kernel here:

    But I now have a later kernel, 2.6.31-15 and I still have the issue. Does this mean the fix did not make it into the newer kernel? Maybe I should downgrade and try it?

    Tried everything I could think of, no luck. I have filed a bug here:

    We'll see if anyone looks at it.
