I googled for my problem again and I found out ( here:

speeds up at 90 °C".
And it's seems impossible that after starting the OS the fan reaches 70 °C,
and after 2 minutes it reaches 90 °C.. so there must be a way to regulate it.
Unless you have a Dell (i8kutils) or a Toshiba, so far as I have been
able to ascertain, you are out of luck.
I suppose it would have to do with drivers/acpi/fan.c or
drivers/acpi/thermal.c in the kernel source tree.
I'm not quite sure what the "fan" module in the ACPI section of the
kernel config is supposed to do; I get nothing in /proc/acpi/fan/, and
the source is undocumented.
You could try searching the LKML?
But then you very well could fry your laptop; I've heard worse.
