I thought it would be fun to run setiathome on my linux platform. This is
going to sound funny, but...

I'm running it at a very low priority via nice and it doesn't seem to be
bothering me at all. But here's the catch: If I kill it, one of the two
fans in my box changes pitch by a full halftone.  Kill it and the tone
goes down, like a fan is going slower. Startit up and the pitch goes up by
that halftone. I have one regular cooling fan, and the other is built into
the power supply.

I don't think this is hurting anything but I'm curious as hell how this
could possibly be happening. Any takers?
