    Laptop heating

    Hello folks,

    After using Kubuntu15.10 for a several months without having some issues, suddenly after my laptops starts (about ~30min) every time i hear the cooler working on high rpm and also the temperature is higher which is obvious. I am wondering is there any solution for this kind of issue because so far I didn't experienced these kind of situations?

    My configuration:
    cpu: i5-3337U
    gpu: amd radeon 7600M

    Thanks.

    Have you blown out you CPU fan with a can of of air? Dust plugging the cooling fans is the #1 cause of heating.
    Other issues include the fan not spinning as fast as it used to (bearing friction), and the thermal paste drying out. Replacement solves those issues.

    There is also a chance that an update didn't play well with the temperature sensors, lm-sensors. Other packages are available: thermd, psensor for KDE, and others

      @GreyGeek thanks for your response.

      My laptop was on a regular cleaning/maintenance in the Dell service in September 2015 when they also changed the thermal paste, so i believe that i don't have issue with that.
      I am using my laptop as a dualboot with Windows 10 so I don't have these experience with Windows, only when I'm running Kubuntu.
      I dont know is there any update which can make these issues?

            Is this okay?

            Code:
            [FONT=monospace]radeon-pci-0100
            Adapter: PCI adapter
            temp1:            N/A  (crit = +120.0°C, hyst = +90.0°C)
            
            coretemp-isa-0000
            Adapter: ISA adapter
            Physical id 0:  +49.0°C  (high = +87.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
            Core 0:         +49.0°C  (high = +87.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
            Core 1:         +48.0°C  (high = +87.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)

              I forgot to mention that the temperature under the touchpad is slightly higher than usual when I am using Windows 10.
              Sorry not to mention this...

              I will see Kubuntu fancontrol too.
              Thanks for your suggestion.
