Thanks Richard.
Almost but not quite. I loaded the fan module, which did nothing,
seeing the fan was already running. I then searched through
/lib/modules/2.6.* for the fan module so I could find the others.
Then loaded the others. Once I loaded the *thermal* module, the fan
slowed down. It was stuck on one speed, which was apparently not fast
enough for what I was doing. So, either a combination of the fan and
thermal modules did something, or just the thermal module.
Thanks again.

I have a notebook that I use with gentoo. I'm trying to create a
tar.gz backup of the entire thing. So, I boot up with 2005.x or
2006.0 livecd, or install cd. Both of them allow the system to over
heat, and it shuts down. This never used to happen. I believe it
worked fine with 2004.x. Have some ACPI drivers been disabled since
2004?
No, but they may have been modularized. Probably you just need to
modprobe fan.
