By removing anything fancy from my xorg.conf (DRI and dual-head), the
6.9.0 does not crash. However there is an annoying problem: the fan
never stops.

Even if the CPU remains around 45C, the fan goes on turning. The file
/proc/acpi/ibm/thermal tells me one of the temp is around 55C when it
is around 35 with my current setting, thus I guess this is the GPU ?

Any idea ?

Cheers,
