Okay, then the sighting is that the system is running warmer
on Linux than it does on Windows, yes?
And the observation is that Windows turns up the fan speed
periodically, but Linux keeps the fan running slowly --
no mater if "acpi=off" or not.
Well, ACPI doesn't directly control the fan on this system,
so there isn't much we can do help.
However, the BIOS does have this device:
Device (VALZ)
{
Name (_HID, EisaId ("TOS1900"))
So apparently, the system is expecting a platform-specific
driver to load and interact with the methods under this device.
Perhaps they enhance fan control, perhaps not, only Toshiba knows.
Perhaps the maintainer of the toshiba_acpi driver can comment...
