My problem disappeared when changing the graphics-driver. I have an ati mobility radeon 9700 and often I install updates, without rebooting for multiple days - sometimes weeks. And since I didn't update the graphics driver with synaptic/apt-get, I wasn't sure about that being the real source of problems. Unfortunately, I made some mistakes by using the radeon-driver, so I excluded the graphics driver from the list of possible sources.
I'm now using the fglrx-driver, and the fan slows down nice again. -- fan does not slow down https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110391 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
