On my PC, it's possible to check the status with lm_sensors (called lm- sensors in Debian based distros.)
Run "sensors" from the command line, or use the daemon "sensord". If the fan is not working and the temperature exceeds some value, you'll see the word "ALARM" in the output. For how to receive alarm automatically, see the man page of sensord. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658964 Title: No Fan after resume from suspend to RAM (lucid) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
