Ubuntu causing a "CPU Fan Failed" problem on restart

[Knapp]

Ubuntu causing a "CPU Fan Failed" problem on restart.

I get the same thing on restart but since I don't use other distros
much so have never seen it not happen and thought that it was the
other distro. I will have to try a live disk and see. I know that
sometimes I have not see it do that. I have a new computer so it is
not the dust. I run an AMD64  x2 3800+
