Intel Thermal Daemon 2.5.11 Released With Wildcat Lake Support

([Intel] 6 Hours Ago Intel Thermal Daemon 2.5.11)


With Intel [1]Panther Lake now shipping, open-source Intel engineers working on the client side are turning to tidying up support for their next target: [2]Wildcat Lake . That more cost effective alternative to Panther Lake now has Intel Thermal Daemon support in getting ready for Linux desktops/laptops.

Intel Thermal Daemon 2.5.11 was released on Wednesday with the main feature being Wildcat Lake support. The Wildcat Lake support comes down to just [3]adding the 0xd5 model and [4]new sysfs path checks . Aside from that it's building off the existing Panther Lake support.

Intel Thermal Daemon 2.5.11 also brings some code fixes as a result of running clang-tidy on the codebase. Plus there is a CVE issue addressed around symbolic link exploits. Lastly are some D-Bus interface fixes.

Those using the Intel Thermal Daemon for modern Intel desktop/mobile Core (Ultra) CPUs on Linux can grab the new release if interested from [5]GitHub .

The annual meeting of the "You Have To Listen To Experience" Club is now in
session. Our Achievement Awards this year are in the fields of publishing,
advertising and industry. For best consistent contribution in the field of
publishing our award goes to editor, R.L.K., [...] for his unrivaled alle-
giance without variation to the statement: "Personally I'd love to do it,
we'd ALL love to do it. But we're not going to do it. It's not the kind of
book our house knows how to handle." Our superior performance award in the
field of advertising goes to media executive, E.L.M., [...] for the continu-
ally creative use of the old favorite: "I think what you've got here could be
very exciting. Why not give it one more try based on the approach I've out-
lined and see if you can come up with something fresh." Our final award for
courageous holding action in the field of industry goes to supervisor, R.S.,
[...] for her unyielding grip on "I don't care if they fire me, I've been
arguing for a new approach for YEARS but are we SURE that this is the right
time--" I would like to conclude this meeting with a verse written specially
for our prospectus by our founding president fifty years ago -- and now, as
then, fully expressive of the emotion most close to all our hearts --
Treat freshness as a youthful quirk,
And dare not stray to ideas new,
For if t'were tried they might e'en work
And for a living what woulds't we do?
