Marc, you mean in KDE menu in Power Management it said that "You seem to have
an incomplete installation of ACPI"? Mine was like that.
Last night I gave ACPI a second thought and enabled it. But I saw that message
in KDE. So, I opened up the software installer and put in "acpi", I installed
acpid, and 1 other package - don't remember. Now I have ACPI functioning,
seems normal. The fan is not running all the time, and yes, a few past week I
have been running my notebook almost 24hr, and in my Acer it's quite hot.
One strange thing though, when KDE starts up, I don't hear any splash sound
anymore. But once I'm in, the volume is normal, I can hear sounds.

No, see, the config menu that tells you that you don't have ACPI installed...it's not there. It's the weirdest thing. It's just...gone.
