Fan control for Ubuntu Studio with Precision M4700
by Tuohi from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4XRQM)
Hello everyone,
First of all, as this is my first post let me thank you for maintaining this forum. And now let's get to the point. I have a loud fan/over heating issue with Ubuntu Studio on Dell Precision M4700, especially if using proprietary NVIDIA drivers. With the open source one it's a bit better, but not as good as with Windows. Is there any software with graphic user interface to control the power and performance settings in order to keep the fans down in most ordinary tasks like web browsing and playing music etc.
Thank you in advance!
