fan running at full speed
[please CC me, I'm not subscribed to the list]
Hi,
image: debian-live-7.0.0-amd64-kde-desktop.iso
box: Dell XPS8300, i5-2320 CPU
The live system appears to boot up without problems, but a fan is
running at full speed and the howling effectively renders the system
unusable. I am also concerned that running the system like that for the
amount of time it will take me to stumble around looking for the cause
and a fix could damage the fan (the optical drive is mediocre, if they
cheaped out on the fan as well...)
Can someone provide me with a list of bits to look for (log entries,
kernel modules, software, etc.) to help discover what's gone wrong, and
stuff to try (e.g. commands, ?) to fix the problem.
