Hello fellas, I have a similar problem after fresh new instal of 14.04 Lubuntu on HP nc6120. Chose Lubuntu as it is lighter than Ubuntu for this machine. The fan behaves as described by Jörg. Similarly psensor does not show fan at all, while the temperatures it shows are frozen at boot level hence graphics are straight lines. The machine is with the latest updates.
Would you like me to extract some more info? Should I follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/BestPractices#X.2BAC8-Reporting.Focus_on_One_Issue or else?

That means that the fan is still off when the Laptop is booted with cold hardware, the fan remains off, leading to an emergency shut down at100°C. If the system is booted when still hot, the fan is turned on at maximum speed. The fan stays at this speed, even when the system has cooled down. This problem did not happen before upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04. When I boot an old installed kernel (3.5.0-44-generic), the problem does not occur.
