In the meanwhile, does this help any?
Method (_TMP, 0, Serialized) { If (LEqual (SWSF, One)) { Return (0x0FA0) } Return (0x0AF0) } Method (_TMP, 0, Serialized) { Return (0x0AE6) } You have really buggy BIOS for your laptop. The ACPI thermal sensor returns fix temperature, which always equals 6.8C and 5.8C. so the ACPI thermal control will never work unless it is fixed in the BIOS. |
