Same issue here. Could it be that this is xorg- or ati-related? Installing fglrx using "hardware drivers" makes my laptop crash, and the fan is continuously blowing hot air. Powertop doesn't reveal anything out of the ordinary, the CPU is running idle 99.8% of the time.
The default radeon driver as well as fglrx worked fine with Ubuntu 8.10 on this system, without running hot at all. -- [jaunty]XPS 1330 very hot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/344661 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
