If it helps ... I just installed Jaunty (64-bit) on a new machine with a GeForce 9800GT and the Free driver doesn't control the fan. The proprietary driver is OK, but obviously not the ideal solution.
Personally I think this is a hardware issue, as the machine is very noisy until the OS loads the driver. This has put me off buying another nvidia card - certainly until I know that they've managed to control the fan in hardware/firmware. Controlling it purely from the driver seems like a cheap and dirty trick to me. -- Nvidia GeForce 7900GS fan always at full speed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88938 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nv in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
