yes, thermal and fan are loaded. However it seems only BIOS has control of a fan
speed (I know this for sure, just don't ask me where from,- possibly acer.com)
The fan spins up at the full speed when I am CPU usage increases. So that all
seems ok. I guess you might argue that my laptop is defective. But on the other
hand I was not able to reproduce that on windows. There is AMD proc. driver for
windows which might be actually doing all the job.

Sorry I can't be any more specific.
