Hi list

Can you please say me what this output exactly mean? Anything in relation to fans/cooling? What does "active" and "ok" mean? Which values are healthy?

# acpi -tBSc Thermal 1: active[3], 50.0 degrees C Thermal 2: ok, 47.0 degrees C Thermal 3: ok, 45.0 degrees C Thermal 4: ok, 28.0 degrees C Thermal 5: ok, 35.0 degrees C

Didn't found any useful docs about this.

You have 5 points, where temperature is measured. Zone 1 can be cooled , and cooling policy is "active" more: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/documentation/thermal.html and: http://www.columbia.edu/~ariel/acpi/acpi_howto.txt
