Amt, please do not write to me directly - the mail list will be out of our discussion - and You will suffer from this the most. I do not advice You to do any terrible thing w/ Your laptop - adding few lines to modules file and then removing it if necessary - is not a big deal, nor will fry Your laptop. We are just trying to find a solution for You - long time ago I fought same problem and conquered it. Since that I had no problem w/ my fan. But I do not remember all I did to solve it - therefore, I can not provide for You a guide You are looking for. But such a situation has another benefit - You, looking for something find other interesting things that may help You in the future, so I suggest appreciate it too. So, I advice You again to try to add those modules, - at least I did not see the the powernow one. Here is mine output: powernow_k8 17574 1 mperf 12453 1 powernow_k8 cpufreq_userspace 12576 0 cpufreq_stats 12866 0 cpufreq_conservative 13147 0 cpufreq_powersave 12454 0 processor 27949 1 powernow_k8 Try to make Yours same w/ mine. Reboot - to be sure all worked as it should, then write back. Sthu. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
