This is clearly OT, even though I am a loyal user of Fedora since Fedora Core 1, but I thought someone here may have some ideas.
Anyway, I have a Dell XPS 13 (9370) circa 2018 and since this afternoon it has been making screeching sounds, sort of like it is screeching to a new place, then screeching back, and so on. It has a SSD (400-AVHW) so what could it be?
I thought that it may be the battery overheating (because it was bulging too) causing the fan to whir on, so we removed it (and ordered a new one) but the screeching sound is still on.
I am not sure what sort of additional information may be helpful, but am happy to provide.
Thanks very much in advance for any pointers!
Best wishes,
Ranjan
