patch vs 2.6.23-rc2
Please test this patch, it uses DMI to:
1. enable polling (BIOS thermal events are broken)
(note, your distro may write into /proc to do this already,
but the kernel default is to not enable polling -- except
for this case)
2. disable active trip points (BIOS fan control is broken)
3. disable passive trip point (BIOS hard-codes it too low)
The actual temperature reading does work,
and with the aid of polling, the critical
trip point should work too.
Note that if you want to specify a passive trip point,
you can override this DMI switch with, say, "thermal.psv=90"
However, I figured selection of an actual value should be
up to the user, and the default would be safer to simply
disable the broken value.
I'll send this patch series to linux-acpi in a moment...
