Use ACPI /or/ APM. Don't try to run them both at the same time. Did you apt-get install acpid and apt-get remove apmd? > And BTW, is there any chance that the fan will turn off or slow down a bit > at lower CPU speeds (Do they (always) have a thermostat or something?) You may have a busted DSDT (I think that's the right acronym). I have an Acer Travelmate 630. The fan sort of plays nicely, but it is not controlled by ACPI due to bugs on Acer's part. The fan is /quieter/ when I'm using ACPI (rather than APM), but it's still on almost all of the time.
