Hi;
I just have installed Debian 3.1 on a HP nc6230 Laptop, I've selected
the 2.6 kernel (option linux26) in order to make the softmodem included
in this laptop to work under Debian, but the problem is that once that I
rebooted the heat went really high, I can feel the keyboard ver hot, so
I restarted the machine to see if the problem persist and notice that as
soon as i select to boot Debian GNU/Linux the fan stops. I did reboot
again and select Windows XP this time (dual boot machine) and the fan
worked fine, so I did again reboot the machine and select Debian, and I
can hear how the fan stops and starts to heat on.... does anyone has
experience something like this before???? Here's my dmesg if someone
could be so kind with your comments. I believe it has something to do
with ACPI but I'm not sure, and I'm not that experienced user.
Best Regards and thanks in advance.

Hi Adriel,
a collegue of me had the same problem and he solved it by switching to another kernel. I do not know what the problem was.
I see in your logs, ACPI tries to load but has some problems with IRQ???
When and without ACPI succesfully loading, in principle the fan work, without the module 'fan', the fan should blast full speed.
