Comment 16 for bug 1179282

Hi vitorafsr,

I've done again the same as before:
- make
- make module
- sudo insmod i8k.ko

After this, I tried "cat /proc/i8k" again, but unfortunately there is still the freeze.
I've added the timing-trace Addon from the last attached package.
Here is the log:

Aug 6 21:06:31 raph-laptop kernel: [ 127.105111] i8k_smm function took 733 usecs

Aug 6 21:06:31 raph-laptop kernel: [ 127.606690] i8k_smm function took 127 usecs

There is still a call, which takes around a half second.

Best regards,
raph
