Does your MacBook's fan go crazy when the screensaver is running?

Asked by thetmle (696points) May 11th, 2008 from iPhone

I have a first gen MacBook 2 ghz core duo. Ever since I upgraded to Leopard the fan will run at 5000–6200 RPM whenever the screensaver is active. It also does this when I use the visualizations in iTunes. Before Leopard, it was never this fan-happy. Is this normal? Anything I can do about it? I have 2 gigs of ram and a 250 gig HD with >120 gigs free.
