@Diego I would have said "oh , there are other brands???" as a reply to your cheeky comment about thinkpad users, but then this is Lenovo (the maker of IDEApads), I ahve nothing to be proud of about them.. if it were back in the IBM days, I would have been more enthusiastic :D
But I guess Good Ol' Diego has a point. This was initially launched as a thinkpad bug and shud have kept as it is, since on thinkpads, there is thinkpad_acpi which manages the fan and that could be the answer here. and the other users might have some diff problems.
