Hello,
I use Compaq Presario V3133AU which has AMD Turion 64bit processor
with Nvidia C51 chipset. I run 64bit F7 and it gets heated up early.
If I keep it on without running anything also it heats up and most of
the time fan is running. Is this normal?
I get the following output when I run
$ cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/info
processor id: 0
acpi id: 0
bus mastering control: yes
power management: no
throttling control: yes
limit interface: yes
I am not understanding why power management is no.
I will be thankful for your help.
If you are lucky, one of the many options to force acpi to be
functional. I used to have a problem with the cpufrequency and powernow
not working with smp kernels. It is fixed now for 32-bit. Maybe there is
a bug in the software.
No, the power management should be yes.
Can you find the cpu frequency applet ad slow down the cpu frequency
with the applet?

That would be because the software doesn't work.
