nc6000 acpi

[asainz]

Hello, I also have a nc6000 and I have the same problems.

For the fan always on, type (as root):


Code:
--------------------
    echo -n 3 >/proc/acpi/fan/C206/state
--------------------


This is the manual control for the fan. 3: off, 0: on. I think it's
safe. If the temperature gets hot enougth, the ACPI daemon will connect
the fan. I haven't tested. Now, the temperature of my laptop is 29ºC,
not enougth to activate the fan.

I haven't a solution now for the kacpid problem. In other thread I read
a workoround: lower the priority of the proccess. If you type (as
root):


Code:
--------------------
    renice 20 <PID of the kacpid proccess>
--------------------


The CPU is 100% used, but the system is usable, the kacpid proccess
runs with the lowest priority.

Hope it helps. If you discover anything new, please, let me know!
