Comment 32 for bug 836480

This issue,CPU Fan non-stopping revolving with maximum speed affected:
Debian 6 with / without GUI.
Ubuntu 11.10/04 Live/Installed.

Laptop is Dell Inspiron 1318.

Certainly, on Windows 7 32/64 bit editions (Ultimate) CPU Fan works as should be - in silence, and only sometime blows hot air.
So,no issue at all on windows 7 and yes exists on all Debian/Ubuntu platforms.

Would be great if Ubuntu team explain what's wrong with intercation to ACPI in Ubuntu and how to do at least workaround in theMarch 2012, because this issue is hardware meaning I can not use at all Ubuntu/Debian etc... in no time.

Right now as all others I forced to use Windows 7, Because I don't have a huge box of CPU fans ,procs etc parts...:-)
