Hiya, I bought a sony vaio tx1xp a couple of months back, wiped 'doz and installed Kubuntu.
Lovely as pie, and I am a very happy bunny. If anyone wants the details, see [1] However, the fan turns on/off every few seconds, and it is starting to annoy me. Even when running on a battery and the CPU is doing nada. So ... I have googled and poked around the acpi drivers as best I can, but I'm stuck. Any pointers on how I can control the fan on this thing? M. [1] http://tinyurl.com/d8fjs ps. the laptop rocks. highly recommended unless a large screen is something you find important.
