If anyone has any information on installing the Linux nVidia drivers it probably would be good to have them installed I guess. Not exactly the fix I was trying for but my problem was that the fans were to loud under Linux and now they're quite so I guess that's solved the problem. I've done this and now they're totally silent!

In looking into this I've discovered that my graphics card has a firmware update out which allows it to turn the fans off altogether when operating below 60C. If yourself or anyone else has any ideas on this feel free to say. As it is, in what I'd guess is standard mode, it's far to loud to work with really. You're right that there is no settings in here to change the fan speed but it's certainly possible, maybe not under Linux, but on Windows I can set the profile to silent mode so the fan spins a lot slower making it a lot quieter. Thanks very much for the reply, I'm sure I checked that box during installation and when I search my computer for nVidia I find an "nVidia X server application" which was what was stopping me from installing the drivers I downloaded before but from what you've said I've already got them installed. It prevents the video adapter from over-heating and that would damage the video adapter. I do not think it unusual for the GPU fan to be running all the time.
That will reduce the amount of heat being generated by the GPU and in turn reduce the need for the fan. My Nvidia card increases and decreases the activity of the GPU according to the load being used. Based on my memory from the last time I used the Nvidia driver, I do not think we get the option to switch off the fans. We can find it by searching the Dash for Nvidia. When the proprietary video driver is installed we also get a settings manager for the Nvidia driver. If it says Gallium then it is the open source video driver and not the proprietary driver in use. If you open About This Computer that is at the top of the power/cog menu then the Details page will load and that will say what video driver is being used. So, you may already be using the Nvidia driver.

If we install Ubuntu and tick the box "Install third party software" then the proprietary video driver is installed during the installation of Ubuntu. What Nvidia card do you have? In Ubuntu we use a utility called Additional Drivers to install the Nvidia driver because it is proprietary or closed source software.
