I still have Ubuntu on my Fjuitsu Simens Amilo. Fan control is really bad, and doesn't step up when needed.
I wonder what controls the fan regulator? Is it temperature sensors inside the machine or CPU load?
I see it's a fairly known problem with Ubuntu on some computers. I installed the Eee applet from synaptic package manager, but it has no connection to the fan on my machines. It's suppose to be able to regulate the settings of the fan from low, medium to full, but what ever setting I choose there is no response.
Is there a similar application to Eee that are meant to work in Ubuntu? Fan speed control is my main problem with Ubuntu.
