Stop spreading lies. Most modern PC's will not run if the ACPI code is disabled. They will break in a multitude of other ways, and you are not helping find the bug AT ALL. The least of the problem is that the fan might not run. They might map reigsters wrong. They might map interrupts wrong. They will route interrupts from from behind ppb bridges. Disabling the acpi codebase creates many crazy, crazy, crazy side effects. Stop giving such bad advice! If you want to help debug his problem, then help him. But giving him bad advice and then putting the problem on us is unacceptable. Gregor Pintar, if you are unqualified to give good advice in an area, don't reply to people.
