Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: i8kutils

i8k  is a collection of utilities to control Dell Inspiron and Latitude 
laptops. It includes programs to turn the fan on and off, to read fan
status, CPU temperature, BIOS version and to handle the volume buttons and 
Fn-keys.

The package includes also a small Tk applet, designed to be swallowed in
the gnome panel, which monitors the CPU temperature and controls
automatically the fans accordingly to user defined thresholds.

When running i8kmon I get 'can't open /proc/i8k: No such file or directory'
When running i8kfan I get the same message.

The logfile created by i8kmon is attached.

output of cat /etc/lsb-release:
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=7.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=gutsy
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 7.10"

output of $sudo i8kfan -v
i8kctl v1.5 10/11/2001

Synaptic tells me that I have installed version 1.27.

When I ran the commands I was expected to get some information about my
fan and other stuff, instead I get the bug report.
