------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2007-02-06 10:50 -------
I have an nx6125 with the latest BIOS F.11. I've tried two different kernels:

1. The latest Ubuntu kernel 2.6.20-6.11, where the only patch related to this
problem is the patch from comment #186.

2. 2.6.20-rc5 with all the patches from
http://www.sisk.pl/kernel/patches/2.6.20-rc5/

With both of them, I get the same behaviour:

Usually (but not always) the fan starts running at a low speed when booting and
never turns off. If I run something cpu-intensive that brings the temperature up
above the first trip point (57 degrees) and let it cool down again, the fan
*does* turn off and operates normally afterwards.

Thermal polling is disabled by default. Enabling thermal polling does not affect
this problem.

If I echo the value 3 into /proc/acpi/fan/*/state, the fan does turn off but
after that, it is no longer automatically controlled and I can only start it
again by echoing the value 0 into one of the /proc/acpi/fan/*/state files.

I'm not alone with this problem, see
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/75398/comments/13

I'm attaching my DSDT.
