I have an Acer Aspire 5715z (T2330 processor, BIOS v1.34) running Hardy Heron that never stops its fan.
The fan starts spinning when temp. exceeds 45C, and it gradually decreases, however acpi -t reading does not go lower than 35C. sensors (from lm_sensors) readings go as low as 5C per core! and the fan is still spinning.
Please advise of some solution, otherwise this fan won't last long.
(and I don't know about the implications of running CPU at 5C!)
