[gentoo-user] set FAN speed

[Catalin Trifu]

Hi,


     I am having a very nasty problem. My Dell Inspiron 5160 laptop
(P4 3.06 GHz) runs at very high temperature (77 degrees C) and in the room are
only 20.
     I looked around at how to get the FAN speed up at max but lm_sensors simply
doesn't want to get installed.
     ACPI does not work properly on this machines (it's a known problem).
     I am running on ck-sources (tried gentoo-sources and same result). I know the fan
is not spinning at full speed (I ran the tests from Dell).
     Does anyone knoe how I could get the FAN up to speed ?

Thanks,
Catalin
