Fan speed.

linux-howto

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I recently installed F12 on my main notebook and ever since the fan has been running at full speed (or near full speed). According to the 'sensors' command I usually have temperatures between 50-70. Does anyone have any suggestions? I didn't have this problem before the installation. Thank you. (HowTos)

Hello Did a fresh install of jaunty. I noticed the fan was unnoticeable at startup, but at random or once I begin to run any applications the fan begins to speed up to a medium-high speed without slowing, even after closing the apps. Its pretty noticeable

The system monitor says the cpu isnt running above 5% but the fan is still at full speed

Slow network with e1000 7 weeks 22 hours ago

I've got a problem with my network speed. I sometimes have full download speed (i.e. 5 MB/s, which is about my max. internet dl-speed) and sometimes comparable slow speed (about 0.5 MB/s). This is affects both internet and home network!

When I got slow network speed it stays that way until I 'renew' the module for my PCI network card (sudo rmmod e1000 followed by sudo modprobe e1000).

I just wanted to check, I'm using nouveau on Fedora 12 with the latest updates and each time I wake the machine from suspend, the fan on my XFX 8800GT goes to full speed and stays there.

I use Thinkpad x100e: AMD Athlon Neo X2 1.6 GHz, RAM 4GB (3.6 GB available).

I installed 12.04 64-bit (with Windows installer) on 40GB of hard disk space. I have some problem about lag speed of the OS. Can anyone suggest me how to disable or turn off any feature to increase the speed performance of Ubuntu?

Hello!

I only just installed Ubuntu, and it is the first Linux I've use. I have it alongside with Windows.

Computer specs: i7 @3.40ghz x8, 8GB Ram, AMD HD Radeon 6870

The issue is that the fans sound like they're running at full speed constantly. I tried a few fixed, but none of them have worked.

I've installed (not live - but full installation) Ubuntu on a 16 Gb usb stick. I also installed onto a usb hdd. The boot speed and general operation is SIGNIFICANTLY faster on the usb hdd. This defies my understanding of technology - I expect the a solid state device should be much faster the a physical hard drive.

I just bought a firewall that is very loud.

There’s an app indicator called indicator-sensors for monitoring hardware temperatures on Ubuntu 12.04 Unity’s panel. The indicator displays the temperatures of CPU, video card, hard disk and also cpu fan speed.

Install indicator-sensors in Ubuntu 12.04 You can install this indicator from the developer Alex Murray’s ppa.
