I've just installed Fedora 17 (x86_64) on my Dell XPS 8300 with Intel Core i7-2600 and I noticed a very strange behavior: CPU and/or motherboard fans are constantly working at very high speed which makes a lot of noise (fan speed is at the same level it was right after powering on). I previously had Ubuntu 12.xx and Debian 6 installed and no such fault was present. Is it really something so advanced to have the ability to reduce fan speed that Fedora devels are unable to accomplish in default installation of stable system release?
Chill out.Stuff in the kernel breaks all the time. Some time ago, I had to wait three kernel updates, before I got a kernel that could boot without OOPSing.
There've been some kernel updates in F17. Update to the current kernel, if you haven't. If you're running the latest update, go back to the repo, and grab the first F17 kernel, manually install it, and see if it gives you better results.
Also: try booting with noacpi and/or noapic kernel boot parameters.
