Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
There is no support for the thermal fans in any of the iMac G5 computers
in both Breezy and Dapper (Flight 5). The fans will run at full speed
and are very loud.

Apparently there are fixes around for this but they have not been
implemented into Ubuntu, and they are beyond the average user.
