I'm using kernel 2.6.14.18 w/ IBM ThinkPad ACPI and I'm wondering how to 
interpret the values of /proc/acpi/ibm/fan.

With this command :

n22 ~ # alias temp
alias 
temp='cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM0/temperature /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal 
/proc/acpi/ibm/fan'

I got:

n22 ~ # temp
temperature:             45 C
temperatures:   45 40 29 47 32 -128 28 -128
status:         enabled
speed:          3052
level:          auto

and :

n22 ~ # temp
temperature:             45 C
temperatures:   45 40 29 46 32 -128 28 -128
status:         enabled
speed:          2984
level:          auto

I know that for a temperature of ~42° the fan speed is 0 therefore I'd like to 
ask what's the measurement unit for the values of the fan speed (2984 and 
3052 respectively).
