Bug Description
Sorry, that's all i got.
To help, what i was doing was trying to enable my nvidia graphics driver. for some reason, it seems that the new gnome desktop keeps the gpu active all the time, meaning the fan is firing up more than it should to cool it down. I was going to switch to power-saving mode into the Nvidia x server settings applet which works, but you cannot open the applet again after a reboot to turn the gpu back on.
I had to remove the nvidia driver > remove local cached/downloaded using the GRUB manager at start up as system wouldn't boot > re-enable driver > rebooted > back in business.
I will leave it on and see how it settles in, but now i have my applet back :)
