The MacBook2,1 consumes more power with libreboot than with the Apple EFI firmware, which means it overheats a lot.

Make it overheat less

The MacBook2,1 overheats a lot with libreboot, we still don't know why but a simple workaround is to install macfanctld.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Macfanctld is available on the default repos of many distributions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For example, to install macfanctld on an Arch-based distro (Parabola, ...), you would run as root
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
pacman -S macfanctld
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
and don't forget to enable it by using `systemctl` or by a script that will run macfanctld if using runit.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The MacBook will still overheat, just less.
|
||||||
|
PowerTop might help too but that's untested.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Vitali64 on irc is planning to make a linux kernel that would be optimized expecially for the MacBook2,1.
