Hi all, Yesterday i tried to reproduce the problem with a clean installation of Ubuntu 8.10 Beta. After installing all the packages still no problem with the Fan. so i tried something else:
Installed ubuntu 8.04 (latest packages /updates) then upgrade to 8.10 beta, problem is back. Fan goings spinning full speed and after a while it goes in a sequence (4 sec full speed - 1 sec stop). Today i tried to see what is different and where the problem can be.. I noticed a NVIDIA driver 177.80-0Ubuntu2, in Ubuntu 8.10 by default? I downgraded this driver to: 173.14.12-1-0Ubuntu4 and the problem is gone. Formatted my laptop again. Installed ubuntu 8.10 beta downloaded latest upgrades, installed nvidia 177.80-0Ubuntu2 and the problem is back again. Downgraded again and the problem is gone. Thought this can be some help in solving the issue. So, dont know if the problem is in the nvidia driver, or Ubuntu having problems with the driver. But something there is going wrong ;).
