------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-12-02 11:28 ------- I wanted to file another bug, but this one looks very close to my problem: a simple "while true; do true; done" will overhead my CPU and result into a machine shutdown (hardware protection or smth) bucause the fans are not started. But if I run "acpi -t", the fans kick in and don't stop not even after I kill the script. I have to run another "acpi -t" to shut them down. I tried to do a "watch 'acpi -t'" to get my fans on and off when they have to, but it does not work like this. It appears I have to run the command only when needed. An old 2.6.15 ubuntu kernel had this fixed, but none of the vanilla kernels (or at least the ones I tried: 2.6.18 and 2.6.19). ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
