Interesting. Mine is also upgraded from Intrepid, so some stale settings
lying around somewhere are a possible cause (the questions which and
where remains though).
I'll attempt a full reinstall when I have time and report back.

nvidia graphics driver 177.80 on geforce 8400 makes fan spin all
No idea. I installed the sensors applet only after I perceived that the
fan is working more often than before in Jaunty. I can't rule out that
it was running as hot before, only the fan didn't come on as often
(perhaps temp thresholds have been improved).

nvidia graphics driver 177.80 on gefor
Thanks for the suggestions. Dynamic scaling was enabled by default (i.e.
PowerMizer was enabled according to nv-control) and running on the
lowest performance level 0. Also, as mentioned before, I had
OnDemandVBlankInterrupts on already.
Unfortunately using these settings didn't affect temperature
Switching to 173 didn't affect the temperature, but the fan seems to be
working less often. This is obviously not good, so I switched back to
180.
However, I'm not running Compiz or any other 3D apps, so I'd expect the
GPU to run much cooler. It would be nice if there were instructions for
lowerin
On the contrary, after upgrading to Jaunty and Nvidia 180.44, my GPU is
constantly running at around 70 C. I started monitoring temperature as
the fan started running a lot more than with Intrepid. The laptop is HP
Pavilion dv9340ea.
