Could that explain the hangs every now and then, when my T41 doesn't
accept any input any longer? Processes keep running but there is no info
from fan, batt or temp available (judged from conky system monitor).
Even the power button doesn't work anymore, I need to power off by
unplugging AC and removing the battery.

Cheers, Leon.
