Dear Christopher,

Unfortunately I no longer am in possession of the laptop in question so
will not be able to test the newer kernel.

Apologies.

Jonathan

Title:
  Fan running constantly on Asus EeePC 1005HA

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  New
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu lucid (development branch)
  Release:	10.04

  I recently updated my Asus EeePC 1005HA to the Lucid beta (Netbook
  Remix Edition) and have noticed that when the computer starts getting
  warm and the fan kicks in, it often fails to turn off again even when
  all programs have been closed and the computer has cooled down - to
  the point where it is running at full speed (very noisy) and blowing
  out completely cold air. When this happens, the only way to stop the
  fan running is to restart the computer - at which point the computer
  returns to normal again.

  The expected behaviour is that the fan should only run when needed -
  and when the computer cools down, the fan speed should then decrease
  or indeed stop altogether. However, at the moment it is getting
  "stuck" on what would seem the top fan speed.

  Sorry but I don't know which is the relevant package for filing this
  bug. Do let me know if I can provide any more information that would
  be useful in solving this issue.

  Also - I should point out that I am using the standard gnome desktop
  rather than the netbook interface that is offered in NRE.
