@penalvch: I'm now running Ubuntu 13.10, which, using a 3.10 kernel, doesn't exhibit this problem.
Moreover, it looks like it'd be a little fiddly to upgrade the BIOS as I'd need to use the FreeDOS variant, not having Windows installed at all. Given that I no longer run an affected version, I don't think I'd be able to help here by updating the BIOS? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1163038 Title: [HP Compaq 6710b] After first wake up from standby, fan stays at full speed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have had this problem since upgrading from 12.10 to 13.04 development branch a couple of days ago. When I boot my laptop up, the fan behaves as I would expect it to: very quiet most of the time, occasionally speeding up a bit. (I haven't tried subjecting it to a load which I would expect to kick it up to the top speed.) However, now when I put it into standby mode, when I wake it up again the fan immediately goes to top speed, and remains there until I turn the machine off (log off makes no change). Subsequent restorations from standby mode also have the fan going at top speed.
