Please try; | # sysctl hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.active=1 | to activate AC1 level cooling by manual. | I did this, but I have never understood what each ACPI sysctl meant. Is there a doc somewhere that explains these? For example, what effect does changing hw.acpi.thermal.min_runtime have? How does hw.acpi.thermal.polling_rate work? How does acpi count battery.life? (i.e. what time unit) Same with battery.time, is it in seconds? Is there a way that I can force the FAN on? I am sorry for all these small questions, but I am sure that many of us have the same questions too. If you want, I can put together a doc as long as I know what they do. :) | but automatically switching to AC1 is not functioning. | I think this is bug, I'll check later on. Further testing will happen soon. :P Thank you very much, Michael To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
