Hi David,
thank you for your mail.
I downloaded the newest version of ibm_acpi (vers.0.11). After that I 
created a new directory with "tar xzvf ibm-acpi-0.11.tar.gz"
Then cd ibm-acpi-0.11 and

linux:/home/steinmetz/ibm-acpi-0.11 # *make*
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.11.4-21.2-default/build
SUBDIRS=/home/steinmetz/ibm-acpi-0.11 modules
make[1]: Entering directory
`/usr/src/linux-2.6.11.4-21.2-obj/i386/default'
make -C ../../../linux-2.6.11.4-21.2
O=../linux-2.6.11.4-21.2-obj/i386/default modules
  Building modules, stage 2.
  MODPOST
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/usr/src/linux-2.6.11.4-21.2-obj/i386/default'

linux:/home/steinmetz/ibm-acpi-0.11 # *make install*
install -d /lib/modules/2.6.11.4-21.2-default/acpi/
install -m 644 -c ibm_acpi.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.11.4-21.2-default/acpi/
depmod -a

linux:/home/steinmetz/ibm-acpi-0.11 # *modprobe ibm_acpi*
linux:/home/steinmetz/ibm-acpi-0.11 # cd
linux:~ # exit
exit
steinmetz@linux:~/ibm-acpi-0.11> cd

After that:


steinmetz@linux:~> ls /proc/acpi/ibm
bay  beep  bluetooth  cmos  dock  driver  hotkey  led 
light  video

And now?   There is no "thermal".....
