Does anyone else have this problem, it appears to heat up and totaly shuts off on it's own? I read somewhere that the Intel chipset may be the issue.
Continue to have problems with heating up and shutting down. I dual boot with Vista and noticeably hear the fan being quieter.
Has anyone had success adjusting fan speed within linux?
I found a link that showed me how to resolve this.

What I have found over time is that it is hit or miss whether the fans start or not. So if anybody has found a way to have some control over the fans I would be interested. This limits my ability to use PCLinux on this laptop.
