Comment 149 for bug 751689

Stopped using x201. However a friend i support has x201 with 14.04 and it still breaks badly.

"because the real bug is that the bios does not speed up the fan correctly when it does get too hot."

"status: Fix Released → Confirmed"

As usual faulty arguments are reason enough to dismiss bugs. It works on Windows. It has worked better on various releases. However, no fix has ever been released. No work (technical) has ever been made to solve this bug. It is for sure in the design of Ubuntu and Linux drivers. The "fixes" work for minor loads, though not for heavy stress on the computer. Noise in relation to fixes is another issue.

Cheers
