no I'm running redhat, you can use apt on any rpm platform.

yes it is. fan1 is a zalman and the other are papsts.

I thin 70 ~71 for cpu core is normal for a p4. I read this in their
spec. I tried to have this value below 70 C, but it simply won't go,
also with running my fans at higher speed. the cpu temp is around 45 C.

aha aha... I could also look for the files and try to delete the old
version, too, couldn't I?

I'll give a try.
