PBR running hot
#1
Hi,

I've just received the Pinebook Pro. I'm running the stock system. I've updated the kernel, the packages and keyboard firmware. Pinebook runs at 50 Celsius when doing only light browsing with the Powersave governor. Playing a 720p60 YT video pushes the CPU Temperature to 60-65 Celsius range. The laptop is particularly hot at the bottom beneath the Escape key, especially if I hold it on my laps. What should I do? The laptop is plugged with the supplied charger. Performance is choppy, the cursor stutters.

P.S. The temperature is 50 even when idling.

Thanks,
brzegorz
