I am also having this problem, on a Dell GX280. The system is fine, until something causes the fan to speed up, then the fan always stays at whatever it's highest speed has been, it never slows back down, even if you leave the PC of for days doing nothing but sitting at the prompt.
A reboot fixes it, temporarily... until it happens again, but a reboot is necessary because it gets so annoying/loud at constant and sustained full speed. This problem existed on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 and still exists after installing Intrepid 8.10. This thread is really old... any of you guys find a solution yet? -- /fan dir empty! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/92117 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
