Example Thermald Configuration
This is a minimal thermald configuration, which sets the maximum sustained CPU temperature to about 65°C.
Modify the <Temperature>65000</Temperature>
value to adapt that to your liking.
Tested on a Surface Book 2, other devices may need adapting, see e.g. the thermald man page.
Installation
Both XML files need to be placed in the /etc/thermald/
directory.
Newer thermald versions attempt to automatically load the configuration from ACPI.
If you want to use a manual configuration with such a version, you may need to remove the --adaptive
option from the systemd service ExecStart
line.
You can do so by running sudo systemctl edit thermald.service
.
