I have a T410 as well and I don't use it because of the fan noise. I
bought it to replace my T61, but I continue to use the T61 because it's
slightly less noisy at 2935 RPM.
I looked for solutions several times but never found one. I even laid
down new Arctic Silver 5 thermal paste and installed brand new fans on
both laptops, but no change. The CPUs run cool in the 30s for the T410
and in the lower 40s for the T61, but the fans just spin loudly. Even
`apm -L` doesn't help.
Both laptops had Windows on them when I bought them and the fans were
silent. So I know it's a possibility.

Hi, some time ago i created the mail like this, but i have some new
information about my problem. So, there is my hw.sensors:

So. i have 34 cpu temperature. And only problem i see is 59C PCH temp. And
as u can see i have 4500 RPM, and its SO DAMN LOUD.
This notebook (thinkpad t410) ran freebsd, several linux systems, and i
NEVER have this kind of problems.
apmd daemon with -L, -C option do nothing about this.
Can i somehow decrease RPM manually?
Cuz i cant sleep at night, lol. When i boot freebsd system - everything
works quite nice.
