Perhaps the explanation is that the software in Squeeze didn't detect
the overheating and therefore didn't report an alarm. Upgrade to
Wheeze fixed the problem. Just a guess. To verify you need to
downgrade (not recommended) and somehow put the dirt back on the fan
(is this possible?). IMHO, you should leave well enough alone.
