I have the same situation of Stephen Stalcup: laptop Dell Inspiron 6000, feisty 
upgrade and /proc/acpi/fan empty.       
I have tried to solve it loading  all availables kernel's, but the result is 
always the same. I have seen that it could 
be a problem related with the control of frequency scaling on the processor,  
maybe seem with  Bug #36014.

I trie that:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo modprobe acpi
FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq 
(/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-386/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko):
 
No such device

and that:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/powernowd restart
powernowd: PowerNow Daemon v0.97, (c) 2003-2006 John Clemens
powernowd: Found 1 scalable unit:  -- 1 'CPU' per scalable unit
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq: No such file or directory

and that:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure powernowd
 * Stopping powernowd:                                                          
                                      [ OK ]
 * Starting powernowd...
/etc/init.d/powernowd: 156: cannot create 
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0//cpufreq/scaling_governor: Directory nonexistent
 * CPU frequency scaling not supported

but I am lost. Some idea?

Thanks very much.
