I'm having trouble with the fans of my 2CPU machine.
Firstly, hit the "New" button to start a new thread. You've hit "Reply" and hijacked someone else's call for assistance.
They are stopped most of the time, but they are not broken : when I manually
push them they start working normally for 10 minutes, then stop again.
Is this a hardware problem or a power management feature ?
Sounds like they're broken. I don't know of a power management feature which detects a fan being push started! They should run all the time AFAIK. Perhaps the bearing is a a bit sticky or something? Just replace them. -- "...our desktop is falling behind stability-wise and feature wise to KDE ...when I went to Mexico in December to the facility where we launched gnome, they had all switched to KDE3." - Miguel de Icaza, March 2003
