Oh yes, I should also note that this seems to only happen in KDE, |
| 34 |
not XFCE or FluxBox. I perosnally dont care for GNOME so I haven't |
| 35 |
tried it. But I did notice that when I briefly had Ubuntu on this laptop, |
| 36 |
I did not have these issues. Is KDE the culprit? |
| 37 |
Thanks! |

ACPI enabled, however, GKrellm2 says in the info tab that no such |
| 41 |
sensors were found. I am also on Kernel 2.6.13-rc1-mm1. Is that |
| 42 |
too bleeding edge? :) |
