Hi Rui.

Right now I'm compiling the kernel to fix the ACPI after compiling a new
DSDT.aml file.  I followed these instructions:

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=122145

I did a clear install from Ubuntu 7.04 to Ubuntu 8.04.  So the dmesg and
acpidump is just for 8.04.

If you search in Google you will find that a lot of people are having fan
problems with the new kernels, and most people report that it didn't happen to
them before.  It didn't happen to me before, and I had FoldingAtHome installed,
so my CPU was working hard most of the time.

So you are right and the problem seems to be in the BIOS' DSDT.aml file, but
shouldn't Linux "just work", like Windows?  I'm not a kernel developer, but I
would like to understand why this cannot be fixed at kernel level.  I cannot
encourage people to use Linux if it is not going to work in their laptops with
their buggy BIOS's.

Thanks.
