Linux Fan Running At Full Speed!

I must have had this problem 2 or 3 years

It started after a routine software update

And today I finally got around to investigating why.

Linux Mint: replacing gnome-screenshot

The default screenshot program on Mint doesn't really do it for me.

 

So I started investigating a better solution.

Linux Mint: my cpu fan is roaring!

This is a very recent problem.

 I'm pretty convinced it was caused by a recent software update.
