Comment 6 for bug 462902

I am using an Acer Aspire 5720 and the laptop fan is going far too much since Karmic (actually, I think it was overactive under Jaunty too but not as bad as now). This machine was so quiet when it had Vista on it which is why it is so noticeable with Karmic. Even at night when nothing is being processed, no applications are running, and the display is off, it is whirring away as though it is processing demanding data.
