Linux Overheating Issues
1
My laptop is Dell inspiron 13 7380, a message keeps showing in system log: CPUx: Package temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = xxx) for all cpu cores. My laptop temperature was never higher than 60C by monitoring output of sensors. Is this a driver issue or misconfiguration? How can I address this issue?

Is this a new issue, from a recent update or new kernel/OS? Does sensors seem to give accurate results? What program/package is monitoring & throttling the cpu, and giving the error?

@Xen2050 Thanks for replying, the issue showed up a since day one. Sensors have no problems, I can feel the temperature on my laptop. The errors were generated by dmesg.

Ok, at least it's nothing new. How does your cpu fan work? Another question here looks like it has the same message Package temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled but it's consensus is only to fix the fans, or clean out the vents, maybe check the heat sink & paste on the (unlikely?) chance it's very old & ineffective now. And the syslog (/var/log/syslog?) might have more info, some other program must be putting the error messages in dmesg.

Fans work fine. The laptop was bought two month ago, it's unlikely a hardware issue or dust in heat sink. System log looks normal.

Does the BIOS show temperatures too? Are they similar to whatsensorsshows?
