The output of acpi -V is :
Battery 0: Discharging, 100%, discharging at zero rate - will never fully
discharge.
Battery 0: design capacity 5200 mAh, last full capacity 2644 mAh = 50%
Adapter 0: on-line
Thermal 0: ok, 26.8 degrees C
Thermal 0: trip point 0 switches to mode critical at temperature 88.0
degrees C
Thermal 0: trip point 1 switches to mode active at temperature 71.0 degrees
C
Thermal 0: trip point 2 switches to mode active at temperature 55.0 degrees
C
Cooling 0: LCD 0 of 15
Cooling 1: Processor 0 of 10
Cooling 2: Processor 0 of 10
Cooling 3: Processor 0 of 10
Cooling 4: Processor 0 of 10
Cooling 5: Fan 0 of 1
Cooling 6: Fan 0 of 1

My problem is the fan keeps running, and it is so noising, I want to slow
it down.
