Well, recall that thermal.ko depends on processor.ko. rmmod'ing one 
implies rmmod'ing the other.

The buzzing is actually fairly loud on this device - I can hear it in a 
moderately noisy bus. It's definately audible over the fan (which seems 
to be constantly running when the display is on on this thing...).

I'd get a recording of it, but of course the noise goes away when I try 
to record using the internal sound card. I assume that is for the same 
reason as the USB causing the buzz to cease. Perhaps later, I will fire 
up my big desktop and record from there.
