Hi all,
I am new to this ML. I found it when I was looking for a solution to my 
IBM R51 on which I installed fedora cr 4 and whose fan is ... well... 
always on.
I read all the past threads about it and it really makes me mad about 
IBM and their apparent pragmatism when they say they support Linux, just 
because they sell and support Linux on servers... APS is another 
intransparent affair, although I am not considering dropping my laptop 
from the table.
 From the threads I understood that people with my same problem run 
Debian and they have a acpi module... but it does not resolve the problem.
Are there any updates for the matter?
Pasquale
