I just installed Debian 3.1 on my Gateway 450 | lap-top (which went extremely well, by the way). It runs a 1.6GHz Celeron. | | The probelm I have is that the fan won't stop blowing, though the | computer is not hot at all. I installed only the Server set-up (with | the 2.4.27 kernel), so I'm not using a graphical environment. The fan | will blow continuously from boot until shut down. This is the case when | I'm at the command line with no jobs running at all. The air coming out | the back is as cool as the room temperature. | | After searching around, it seems that it may be an ACPI and / or APM | conflict. A Mempis poster suggested that the 2.4.29 kernel solved a | similar problem. | | Under WindowsXP, the fan would turn on intermittently as expected. So | I'm fairly sure it's a hardware issue (not somehow stuck to "permanently | on" mode.) | | Where would I start looking for information on how to fix this problem? | Any other suggestions? First of all I'd try the latest 2.6 kernel, not a 2.4. Be sure to load your cpufreq module and to run an appropiate speedstep tool like cpudyn or powernow.
Good luck ;)
| Thanks for your help,
| Matt.
