ACER Veriton 1000 Fan noisy after installing Linux


I have installed XUBUNTU 20.04 on an ACER Veriton 1000.
In works ok but from the very start, the Fan (Heatsink for CPU) makes a terrible noise.
It seems Temperature-Fan-Control does not work.

Any Idea how to get rid of the noise?

The heatsink might not be secured properly, or the fan sitting on top of it might be dirty. Have you tried making sure the heatsink/fan is secured properly, and cleaning the fan on top of it?

You might also want to check the thermal paste between the processor and heatsink too if it's overheating.
