What is the thermal control chip on pismo ? Is this an i2c chip like on ibook2.2 ? On my ibook, I have the following device (responding adm1030). What about yours ? cat /proc/device-tree/uni-n/i2c/fan/device_type
It is the same problem on ibook2.2. So I developped the chip driver. If the chip is the same, you may try my module and set the fan starting temperature to a saner value. By default, it starts at 68°C on ibook...
