Comment 27 for bug 70739

Hi all,

I have stumbled across the fix to the negative temp problems. See: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=623633

I tried the hardy alpha2 livecd, and the CPU fan does run, but quite slowly. It is the same as running with the current gutsy kernel. I will try to load up the system enough to change the fan status and report back. (I put in an extra fan at the back of the box, which keeps the whole thing cool enough now that it is hard to get the CPU too hot.)

cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/*
