The Linux Thermal Daemon program from Intel Open Source Technology
Center
Thermald deals with thermal issues for Intel processor families
codenamed Intel Sandy-Bridge and above. It is a Linux daemon
used to prevent the overheating of systems. This daemon monitors
temperature and applies compensation using available cooling methods.
Since this is a daemon, it can be started at boot via
/etc/rc.d/rc.local:
/usr/sbin/thermald
An entry could be added to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown as well:
killall thermald
Optional dependency: msr-tools
To upgrade please remove thermal_daemon first and then install thermald.
NOTE:
If thermald failed to launch, try adding this option first:
--ignore-cpuid-check
