Comment 16 for bug 24308

Ok, do this for me please:

1) First, do "ps ax | grep acpid", and make sure acpid is running. If not, stop
there, because that's your problem.

2) If it is running, run "/etc/init.d/acpid stop" to kill it,

3) now, start this command "cat /proc/acpi/event"

4) Stop your acpi -t cron script, and wait to see what events are coming out of
the above command. If you see nothing, and your machine overheats, then let me
know. If you do see events, send them to me (stop the script before the machine
halts and run your command again).

5) Send me the output of "cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/trip_points"
