hi all,

I've installed F17 on my laptop Sony VPCEB4C4E 32bit (KDE)
I noticed that very hot without doing anything complex; the fan runs like
crazy -

I opened the laptop to see if there was dust on the cpu fan but it is clean
I noticed that maybe when I watch a video, I look at the mail (thunderbird,
kmail) or do a bit of multitasking then the fan runs a lot (the cpu never
reaches 100%)

what can be the problem?
thanks in advance
cheers
Do you have the laptop setting on flat surface so air can get into 
bottom of laptop.
I have seen people have their laptop setting on their bed and it could 
not get any air to the bottom.

Usually do not use the laptop in bed but it happens at work, in the table at home, everywhere.

Also, have you tried it with other Fedora and non-Fedora
distributions/OS/releases? I would first make sure that the problem is
isolated to Fedora 17 and not the hardware, kernel, etc.

Honestly I never tried other distributions over fedora (before I was 15 and then 16 but the problem was the same).
You advise me to try another distribution?
