I made the switch from Vista Ultimate to Ubuntu 7.10 a few days back, and I'm noticing that my cpu fan has been going nuts!
It maxes itself out for a bit, then calms down.. then repeats itself.
I had Vista installed for 5 months and never heard the cpu fan, or any noise from my case.. now, it's all I can hear while on the computer.
I've got a 25cm fan on the side of my case that runs almost silent, but is keeping my case nice and icy.. if I stick my hand in the case, it's nice and cool in there..
Any ideas?
I know it sounds odd, but I feel like it might have to do with Ubuntu, since this just started when I switched over.
