I have a dell vostdo laptop tha used to become very hot, I replaced the fan cleantd the heatsink aplyt thermal paste and now the harddisk reaches 47c when idle and dualcore cpu reaches about 50c idle and 75 under hours of load. is this the average temp or does it have to be brought down further? * +

There are cooling pads for the Dell Vostro that are very cheap, try buying one.

linux and ubuntu do not have any real control over cpu speed throttling so even when its supposed to be idle the cpu can still be screaming along with cooling fans maxed out. Ubuntu is best only used in an emergency to recover data of your boot hard disk when the system wont boot. * +
