Just press Fn and F10 (should be the same on X30 and X50) together and
watch (and report) the on-screen-display.

It seems taht on my laptop the fan does not kick on under dapper
unless the cpu temp is so hot that I can barely touch the bottom of
the laptop with my hand. there are no fan settings in the bios and I
have the latest bios. acpi must be running but suspend etc work
fine. Is there a util to control the fan from with linux and if so
maybe the temp that it is prompted to turn on is set to high?
Hi Eaves,
as I am writing this, I am sitting in Front of a X50, which is very
similar to your X30. Power/Fan/Temp-Controls are working pretty well.
Even the "Silent-Mode" is selectable.
Could you post something about the function of the "Silent-Mode"
FN-Key? If this is selected, the Fan is kept off as long as it could
be. Thus: heat is increased to the utmost limit.
Keep us informed
Regards
Dietmar
