From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Mine gets quite hot while charging. What're your issues?
Similar. 95-100 degrees C under load, while 70-85 (or something like that) is normal according to the support. It's also very hot in idle (60-80). And when it gets hot, it throttles to unusable 400 MHz.
Still in contact with support, I have warranty, so I'm hoping they get me new thermal paste or whatever is broken. It's not a software thing.
Thanks for the info! I'll have to double check my temps, but last I saw I think they were around 50-70ish iirc so I guess maybe it's ok. It still feels like something in there (I think it's the batt) is getting hotter than that and I'm wondering if maybe something isn't working right, I have to find my laser thermometer I guess.
From hand feel, my battery doesn't really get hot (opened it right after shutdown when it was 80 CPU temp)
