pretty bad.

are you sure the fan module is loaded?

you can give an acpi-patched 2.6.13 a try - get the patch from

http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/

most of the patch was merged in 2.6.14, but it should be worth a try.

there is no patch for 2.6.14 yet.

The only workaround which comes to mind is booting with acpi=off until
a fix shows up. In the meantime, you should seek help on the acpi-devel
mailinglist.
