Instead I backported the i87.c driver from the upcoming linux 2.36.7.rc5 itree into my linux-2.6.36.6 kernel. After recompiling i and a reboot it loads well but dmesg shows that there were conflicting ACPI areas then. The driver itsself suggests to use the atk0110-acpi driver instead the it87 one. So I will do that and give the BIOS the full control over the fans. Best regards mcc
