/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/cooling_mode:
<setting not supported>
cooling mode: critical

/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/polling_frequency:
<polling disabled>

/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/state:
state: ok

/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/temperature:
temperature: 49 C

/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/trip_points:
critical (S5): 95 C

==========

This is a passively cooled notebook, so there's no fan
to control. They probably self-limit the CPU speed when
the temperature gets high to prevent meltdown of the drive.

But I would like to raise the lower limit if possible,
allowing the speed to bump back up at, say 58C rather
than waiting for 52C as it currently does.
