Hi All,
I've been having heat issues on my HP Laptop for some time now and thought i'd ask if anyone has had this issue.
The temp for the CPU and Graphics card is very high, I can feel the heat when using the keyboard. I can hear the fan going but it's very hot!
Has anyone had this issue or guide me in the right direction to sort this? I have Windows 7 on duel boot and Windows doesn't have this problem so i'm figuring this could be a driver issue perhaps? Below is the output from sensors:
$ sensors

temp2: +86.0°C (crit = +128.0°C)

Graphics Card:
$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Seymour [Radeon HD 6400M/7400M Series]
The Graphics driver is the "recommended driver" (open source, tested), not sure if i should use one of the Proprietary ones. This happens on Ubuntu verisions 12.04 upwards (haven't tried anything older).
If you need any more information then please let me know. Thanks.
