Title:
  Max fan speed severly limited.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am running Ubuntu 11.10 on a laptop and the heat management is very
  bad.  The system will heat up and under clock to avoid damage.  When
  the system is restarted and in GRUB the fan speed will go to MAX.  The
  moment the kernel loads the fan speed drops dramatically.    Why not
  increase the fan speed to the max to try and avoid under-clocking?  In
  fact i have never seen my fan speed max out on Ubuntu!  Awful!

  Clearly this is incorrect behavior that is not only damaging but severely limits the power of the machine.
