There is nothing in the path /proc/acpi/fan/ it is empty. Are there special modules I have to compile against the kernel? |

Ok, assuming I am reading /usr/src/linux/drivers/acpi/thermal.c |
| 13 |
correctly, these mean your system will start throttling the CPU when |
| 14 |
it reaches 95C, and shutdown at 97C. Unfortunately you do not have an |
| 15 |
'active' mode that would allow you to set the temperature when the fan |
| 16 |
turns on or off. |
| 17 |

Unless you have something under /proc/acpi/fan, it looks like your fan |
| 19 |
is controlled by either the hardware or the BIOS. |

It means that if the system gets too warm, all the OS can do about it |
| 28 |
is to throttle the CPU. No fan control is available.... |

What do you mean? Do you mean APM support? If so, no, that almost |
| 33 |
certainly will not help. |
