Simply use tsc as timesource instead of PM Timer (ie not compiling in the latter) and all is cool again (now idle temp is as low as 40°C!). ACPI as such is included. I attached my current config. I guess one could also use a kernel boot parameter to switch between those timers. I don't know whether it is actual a problem with C1 or whatever. I just described my assumption I made. If I disable CPU disconnect, my CPU runs hot again even with tsc timer. With ACPI PM timer disconnect makes no difference (hot everytime...). Cheers, Prakash
