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.
