cpu overheating

[Constantine Kousoulos <wuwei@freemail.gr>]

Hello,

When i do a cold start, the cpu fan barely spins. The result is that in 
a few minutes the cpu overheats and the system automatically shuts down. 
When i immediately turn it on again, the system detects the cpu's high 
temperature and begins spinning at higher speeds for the rest of the 
time. In both cases, the cpu fan never icreases or decreases it's speed, 
it just continues spinning at a constant speed since the system's startup.

I have a debian-amd64 notebook, with a turion64 processor. The above 
mentioned behavior remains no matter what kernel i use.

Any sollutions to that??

Thanks,
Constantine
