Just to clarify this for me, because I'm getting kind of lost in reading
all the posts, both Ubuntu developers in this thread, and kernel
developers in the kernel thread where this issue is reported are more or
less blaming this on Dell firmware, am I getting this correctly?

Concerning the Dell certified version of Ubuntu - Dell does not allow
other users whose machine did not originally come with it to download,
i.e. making it public to download, am I correct?

I also have a question about the i8kutils - does it remedy the issue
completely without side effects and is it dangerous to use it? I mean,
it's not vendor certified software and it meddles with temperature
settings for the fans, so if I really screw up the settings, can I
potentially fry my CPU?
