Hi,

I came across this cool info when fiddling with my laptop for solving the hibernate problem --

Temperature info ! so ...

# acpi -c -T -B Thermal 1: ok, 43.0 degrees C

This with gnome-desktop. Heh, then it struck me, what if i check the temperature on every other desktop env and rate them according to their "coolness" ?

KDE and XFCE turned out cooler than gnome, but m'be coz i hadn't enabled any additional features plugins etc etc.

But then again if temp is high, would mean that a process is stressing the processor . Can this be a valid way than say top/profile to figure expensive wasteful cycles ?

how cool is your tp / desktop ? whats your opinion on this ?

regards, C
