shinyblue, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc6 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Summary changed: - [ATI Graphics][Lucid] laptop runs hot, shorter battery life, fan always on + 1002:9553 [Dell Studio 1555] laptop runs hot, shorter battery life, fan always on ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 748080 1002:9612 [HP Pavilion tx2500 Notebook PC] ATI card fan is always on with opensource radeon driver ** Tags added: bios-outdated-a13 needs-bisect needs-upstream-testing regression-release ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: High => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- 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/563156 Title: 1002:9553 [Dell Studio 1555] laptop runs hot, shorter battery life, fan always on Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On Karmic (2.6.31 kernel) my laptop ran silently (no fans unless really put through its paces), had long battery life (3.5 hours), and was cool. Since upgrading to Lucid beta-2, it runs hot, the fan is always on (from cold start it's off, but quickly comes on and stays on) and battery life is less than 2 hours.
