Hi,

have soneone managed to control the fans inside the TP600e? Is this 
possible via ACPI? I got my machine booting:

  ACPI: AC Adapter [AC] (on-line)
  ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present)
  ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]
  ACPI: Lid Switch [LID0]
  ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB]
  ACPI: Fan [FN00] (off)
  ACPI: Fan [FN20] (off)
  ACPI: Fan [FN60] (off)
  ACPI: Fan [FN70] (off)
  ACPI: Video Device [VID0] (multi-head: yes  rom: no  post: no)
  ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports C1 C2 C3)
  ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports 8 throttling states)
  ACPI: Thermal Zone [THM0] (70 C)
  ACPI: Thermal Zone [THM2] (37 C)
  ACPI: Thermal Zone [THM6] (35 C)
  ACPI: Thermal Zone [THM7] (27 C)
  ibm_acpi: ec object not found

Any hint, why there should be four fans inside the machine? I only know 
about one ;-) Is there a List of the Thermal Zones?

On the IBM-ACPCI (http://ibm-acpi.sourceforge.net/) page, it is stated, 
that tp600 is still to be done...

Ciao
