Since then, the fan has been running continuously. I have loaded the thinkpad_acpi module and could, of course, switch to some userspace fan controller, but I'm always a bit reluctant about those. I've reviewed the Gentoo patches, and none of them seem to have to do anything with ACPI. So now I'm looking for suggestions on how to debug this.. Many thanks, Yours, Florian -- 0666 - Filemode of the Beast
