Comment 9 for bug 375285

Wow, abhiroopb good post! Unfortunately my system fails to booting with the complete fix, so be careful. I know you guys are going to laugh at this python script, but it works! I just nohup it when I use vmware or really anything.

#!/usr/bin/python
import os
import time
#apt-get install i8kutils
#sudo modprobe i8k force=1
while(True):
 os.system("i8kfan temp 10000 > /dev/null")
 time.sleep(.5)
