Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: acpi

I have a serious problem with my Fujitsu Siemens Pi 2530 running with
Ubuntu 10.10.

Since several days the fan is not working anymore. The hardware was
checked in store, but the problem resides on the software side.

So I tried some bugfixes:

   1. Changing the DSDT file does not work since Jaunty.
   2. In /etc/default/grub I changed the following:
      Code:

      GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi.power_nocheck=1"

   3. I created this small script as in /etc/init.d:
      Code:

      #!/bin/bash
      #
      sleep 5
      echo -n 0 > /proc/acpi/fan/FN1/state
      echo -n 0 > /proc/acpi/fan/FN2/state
      echo -n 3 > /proc/acpi/fan/FN1/state
      echo -n 3 > /proc/acpi/fan/FN2/state

Nothing of it worked probably. Sometimes the fan works, but most of the
time it does not. In the moment I cool the CPU with a blow dryer, but I
need to find a solution, otherwise I will be doomed to use Windows.
