I'm having a similar problem with my Toshiba Satellite M115. The fan will turn on and off, however the computer occasionally overheats, due to the fan not cooling off the system (because it is off).

Running "acpitool -f" it will show the fan as being either on or off, but when I attempt to use "fan", "fnfxd", or anything similar to that, I get an error message similar to the following: "Could not open /proc/toshiba/keys" or "No Toshiba ACPI extensions were found".

This is with Jaunty, and has happened with both regular and 'proposed' kernels and packages.
