Hi,

Machine is a dv6-1160tx.

I've attached the acpidump.out for this machine.

The fan goes from silent to very loud for no apparent reason and spends quite a
lot of time at very loud when the temperature on both cores is < 50 degrees C.

If I force the temperature up using a CPU hogger, the fan goes on and stays on
until I lower the temperature.  That's good!

What's not good is that this damned laptop spends way too much time sounding
like a jet engine.

Kernel is 2.6.29.5-191 (Fedora 11).

I've tried adding a custom DSDT but it won't "take".  I'll report this as
another bug.

regards,
RR
