ok, tested the vanilla-kernel this morning and it shows the exact high
temperatures (with CONFIG_THERMAL=y)

I've got a question:

when trying to disable thermal it just sits there & won't change:
<*> Hardware Monitoring support --->
-*- Generic Thermal sysfs driver --->

it seemingly depends on other things:
Selected by: ACPI_THERMAL && !X86_VOYAGER && ACPI && ACPI_PROCESSOR

is it safe to disable acpi_processor and acpi or CONFIG_THERMAL in
general ? or will it burn down my box ? ;)

I'm asking this because it says/writes:
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL: │
│ │
│ This driver adds support for ACPI thermal zones. Most mobile and │
│ some desktop systems support ACPI thermal zones. It is HIGHLY │
│ recommended that this option be enabled, as your processor(s) │
│ may be damaged without it.


thanks
