Thanks I will follow that with keen interest. In fact, the current version of the kernel does a reasonable job of managing the fans. There is an acpi problem, however -- on waking, fans only operate in the state they were in at the time of being put to sleep. So sleep when fans are off and wake with fans off, never to be activated again. Otherwise fans run continuously at the speed they were running when system was put to sleep.
Rebooting fixes that, of course.
