Greetings list, My thinkpad x60 1706-BS8 overheats while compiling/rendering if /proc/acpi/ibm/fan is set to "auto".
I have been running Lenny for quite some time and it used to be fine. The problems started sometime this autumn, perhaps around the kernel upgrade. The way I currently get around the problem is by issuing echo level disengaged > /proc/acpi/ibm/fan Unfortunately I sometimes forget to do this when starting a compile or a rendering which results in the computer shutting down. Is there a way of setting the max speed for "level auto" to a higher setting or enabling "level disengaged" when the temperature reaches a certain level? And just out of curiosity are anyone aware of what changes might have caused the problem.
