Re: [ACPI-sppt] Installing Suse 9.0 professional - could this be an ACPI problem?

Hey Luca, how does your fan work in test8 and test9? For me the fan
doesn't seem to come on ever. And I can't manually turn it on, not that
I ever could before. But I've watched the temp get up to 70 a few times.
If your fan does work, would you attache your .config file for the linux
kernel for me to look at?
