I thought upower doesn't influence the fan speeds. I would appreciate if you'll point me for some differences between HAL and upower.

You know, right now the fan speed is much more aggressive and I have no idea why it changed. I just wonder if there is some kind of config for fan control.
>So why are you complaining? :-)

It's just the new behavior and it's unusual :)
