I have read about the fan problem long before submitting this bug report -- there are definitely problems, but I have no problems on Win 7.
Your two responses don't seem to be consistent. First you say that this is a problem with the Dell computer, and that it is even worse under windows, then in the second comment, you say that everything is OK on both Linux and Window. If everything is OK on Linux, then please send me a dump of the sensors showing that the chip temperatures are sensed and the fan speed is being adjusted on Linux, and I would like to know what configuration, drivers, and kernel level make it work so I can get it working here. On my machine, there are no fan drivers and no sensors, and I have tried all the common things that are described on the web particularly the Ubuntu wiki for getting temperature sensors working. In that sense, we are not yet talking about a design problem where the CPU runs too hot, but a problem where my fan runs at a very high speed all the time (unless of course, the fan is controlled automatically, but that would not explain why Linux and Win7 have very different behaviors). -- Fan runs too fast on Dell Studio 1747 with i7 chip https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521698 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
