Hi list, |
2 |
|
3 |
since i dont't know where else to ask this question i figured i might as |
4 |
well ask it here. |
5 |
i'm running gentoo on my tibook 550 (powerbook3,3 that is in |
6 |
kernelspeak) and noticed that with a 2.4 kernel as well as under macos |
7 |
the fan hardly ever kicks in, even when the computer gets quite hot |
8 |
while with the 2.6 kernel the fan wouldn't stop running. |
9 |
|
10 |
while this aproach is probably bying me some more lifetime for my |
11 |
computer, it is seriously annoying not to have at least an occasional |
12 |
moment of silence when sitting in front of the box. |
13 |
|
14 |
i already tried searching the kerneltree for suspicious expressions like |
15 |
"fan.*control" and such but so far without success (meaning i found only |
16 |
acpi-related stuff). |
17 |
|
18 |
can someone please give me a hint where else to look or even where else |
19 |
to ask this question? any help is appreciated! |

thanks in advance and best regards, |
