Hi,
People have the same issue with IBM servers - the fans run like crazy,
and I believe it is the OS' responsibility to check temperatures and
adjust fans as necessary.
IBM's interface to its fan control systems is underdocumented, and if
there's nothing in OpenBSD to control Dell's, then
Nah; more often than not this means one other fan isn't spinning. Open
the case and make sure all fans are in working order.

Not true. On a PC, it is acpi's responsibility to do that, if they
even exist.
