Hello,

I also have fujitsu-siemens Amilo L 1310g, and I can confirm that the
bug still exists with hardy with latest updates. I installed the beta
from regular installation cd and ran dist-upgrade last night. 7.10 kept
the fan running at all times.

The fan seems to stop at startup, while the init scripts/services are
running/starting up. However it isn't any distinct moment in the boot
process, and at least once it stopped after few minutes of use (this
might be before updates). If the fan remains on, it seems to remain on
indefinetly: last night the machine was on capturing dv-video. Acpi -t
reports rising temperature, and /proc/acpi thinks that the fan is still
on.

I have been trying to find if there is any logic in this behavior, but
the stopping seems pretty random. However, it seems that every time the
machine is unused (=cold) the fan stops. After 15mins of usage the cpu
is 70C or so, and after restart the fan stays on. So maybe it stays on,
if the initial temp is over some trip point?

I can provide dumps from /proc or anything else useful, or if you have
any ideas/kernels/patches to test :)

cheers,

Valtteri
