I'm having the same issue. The fan either runs all the time or turns off and
on rapidly. Driver version 177 (from the restricted drivers configuration
tool), and here is output from lshw:
*-display
description: VGA compatible controller
product: GeForce 8400M GS
vendor: nVidia Corporation
physical id: 0
bus info: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:01:00.0
version: a1
width: 64 bits
clock: 33MHz
capabilities: pm msi pciexpress bus_master cap_list
configuration: driver=nvidia latency=0 module=nvidia
I also have a Dell Inspiron 1420: Linux 2.6.27-6-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct
7 04:15:04 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux.
Switching to nvidia version 173 fixed the problem.
