hi i installed endeavouros and i notice the cpu overheating when i use firefox or watching youtube can you help me??
overheating CPU’s are almost never a software problem.
If you did overclocking, revert that and check if the issue disappears.
If you did not, its most likely a dust issue and your machine needs cleaning.
Fwiw, I had an overheating issue after first installing EOS with wmi3 on one box and it turned out I needed to ensure the cooling fan was operating. This may differ between your hardware brand/setup (didn’t have the problem on other hardware). But search on Arch Linux for fan control and see if that might simply be your solution. My setup has been fine ever since.
welcome at the forum b.t.w.
As mentioned by others already… the reason for overheating is mainly related to the hardware … could be bad cooling … old thermal paste hardening… or bad support for the hardware in use on linux could be also reason…
Some info about the hardware used on your system will be a first shot to get help here: inxi -Fxxc0z | eos-sendlog
Without any detailed info on how exactly you setup the OS and about your hardware all help will be nothing more than betting what could be the reason.
i used fedora i didt have this problem i have new laptop
Welcome @pipo1
Could you post the hardware as requested? Would be helpful for those trying to assist you.
The issue is most likely that you don’t have the nvidia driver installed as it’s not loaded. So something going to cause the overheating.
Device-2: NVIDIA TU117M [GeForce MX450] vendor: Lenovo driver: N/A
arch: Turing bus-ID: 0000:01:00.0 chip-ID: 10de:1f97
Edit: Did you use the nvidia option when you installed?
Edit2: Also are you using grub or systemd-boot?
You may need to set ibt=off
as a kernel parameter but i need to know if you are using grub or systemd-boot?
Edit: You may have installed the nividia driver but it’s not loading in that case because of an issue with Intel cpu.
yes i used nvidia option and grub
Okay can you try this.
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
add this to the default grub command line
ibt=off
ctrl + o then enter to save
ctrl + x to exit nano
Then update grub with
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
reboot
Then post the output of
inxi -Ga

It’s still not showing the nvidia driver loaded. Can you check

I also want to check that you added the kernel parameter properly. So can you post the link to this command.
cat /etc/default/grub | eos-sendlog
No you put ibt=off
at the bottom of the file. You need to remove that and put it in the line like this example.
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='nowatchdog nvme_load=YES ibt=off loglevel=3'
Do everything as i posted above except put the parameter in the right line and then update grub again. Then reboot and post the output for the graphics.
inxi -Ga
Edit: Make sure you save the file and exit nano before you update grub again after adding the parameter.

It’s still not showing the driver loaded. Are you sure you did it correctly? Can i see the output again?
Sorry for this but it’s the only way i can know it’s correct or not. Post the link again.
