I've just installed Ubuntu 13.04 and I think I may have issues with the graphic card.

Its fan is just running very fast (and noisy).

I tried to check the temperature using sensors and got the following:

coretemp-isa-0000

Adapter: ISA adapter

Core 0:       +48.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

Core 1:       +47.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

Core 2:       +46.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

Core 3:       +47.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

temp2:        +43.0°C  (low  = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C)  sensor = thermal diode

temp3:         -2.0°C  (low  = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C)  sensor = thermistor

intrusion0:  ALARM



radeon-pci-0100

Adapter: PCI adapter

temp1:       +113.0°C 

IIUC - the temperature is 113.0C is this a normal temperature? Is this why the fan is running fast? Until yesterday I had Windows 7 on this same machine and I haven't had any problems with the GPU fan.

Might be a drivers issue, I tried to install the driver for AMD/ATI web site and failed (something about required packages missing - checked the logs to see what is missing and found out it is installed).

I'd appreciate any help here.

Thanks,

Itay
