Bug Description
laptop toshiba satellite amilo a100-998
Intel centrino duo 1.66.
the fan in the laptop is not turning on and cant even hear it, i have checked the log messages and that has confirmed it with a message saying:
acpi: transitioning device [fan0] to D0
ACPI: unable to turn cooling device [f7414468] 'on'
and this is repeated 5 times.
ubuntu intrepid (development branch) alpha 6
release: 8.10
The fan works in hardy and linux mint 5.

can you install acpitool, then try running acpitool -f and seeing what it says? If it sees a fan, try running acpitool -F 1 to force the fan on.
