Now that I have finally completed the setup of Linux on my new X60s, I
have noticed a few rather disturbing things:
- The hard disk gets incredibly hot under Linux, but remains totally cool
under Windows
- I rarely hear the fan kick in when in Linux
- Battery life is only about 4 hours under Linux, but upto 7 hours in
Windows.
Clearly, power management is an issue here - at least under FC5.
Any recommendations?
TIA
