Is the module "thermal" loaded? On my laptop (Averatec 3250) the fan runs but on very rare occasions it stops running. If I notice it getting hot but the fan staying off, `modprobe -r thermal` followed by `modprobe thermal` brings it back on. Maybe you could try that. (When I tried suspending to disk many years ago, the fan wouldn't come back on when I resumed, but the same unload/load trick worked.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
