fan's question
Hi all,
I've a problem and I don't know if the problem is of my laptop or of kubuntu.
I've installed in the same laptop (Acer Aspire 5920G, with nvidia GeForce 9500M GS) Windows XP also and its fan control is better than kubuntu, I noticed.
In particulary, I noticed, at startup, during the plymouth, 2 cases:
- if the pc is cold, no fan starts; fan starts after some minutes since session's start, and this I like
- if the pc is hot (GPU about 60°C, normal for my GPU), the plymouth force the GPU already "hot" and fan speed increases and for 10 minutes or more during the session I hear that fan althought temp is 60°C and the fan should decrease.
I'd want a silent pc, not too hot e optimized. I think that the fan speed i checked by the graphic card: in fact it is the causes of the fan's start at the startup because its temperature increase quickly (maybe caused by plymouth??)
In Windows XP, instead, after GRUB, i seed its "plymouth" (with logo and loading bar etc.) and the fan remain stopped; just after some minutes of use, maybe 5 or more (I don't count them
), fan start at minimum speed...this maybe becasue Windows XP heats less.
According to you is the plymouth that force since the beginning the graphic card and the temp increase quickly??
Naturally, Desktop Effects are disabled.
Actualy, in the while I'm writing this post, the fan is at the intermediate (minimum, intermediate, hight speed) speed, at 60°C...
If now I shut down the system or reboot just to see graphic card temp, it is about 64/65°C
Have you some advise?
I hope yes
