Toshiba satellite L505, Hdry H20 BIOS, intell dual core CPU Also seeing same issue as above.
(1) Default fan behavior is it will not come on unless I open the ubuntu software center , then it comes on full blast and will not turn off. Monitoring temperature is impossible. (2) doing "sudo apt-get install acpi" allows temperature of CPUs to be checked from command line, but fan will not come on no matter what after that is installed. I just get to watch my processor temp creep up until I panic around 70 C and restart with Windows 7 so the fan will come on and cool it down. (3) adding acpi_osi="Linux" to /boot/grub/menu.lst on the appropriate line (coresponding to the kernel I boot) AND haveing acpi installed will start the fan on some low speed at cold boot, and it will stay on continuously at that speed. However, the fan will turn off upon hibernation, and not turn back on again after that unless the laptop is restarted. #3 seems to be best senario, but not adequate for CPU-intense activities ---- -Would love more information on the proprietary ATI bit by Anakin StarKiller.
