Hi, I did a zypper dup on my computer the other day and as best I can remember the following were updated:
kernel-default kernel-default-devel kernel-devel kernel-source kernel-kmp kernel-firmware
Look in /var/log/zypp/history to find exactly which package versions triggered this and file a bug.

I had a bug filed for this problem starting in Opensuse 11.1 and continuing up to version 11.4. The solution seems to be these 3.0 rc kernels, the cooling fans work fine with them.
Turning on kernel multiversion [1] is the best way to deal with problems like these
You are certainly right about that, and I have been meaning to edit the /etc/zypp file to accept multiversion kernels. I suddenly became highly motivated to do it after this problem, and did it right after I lost the fan function. I modified the repository address in yast and got the option to install the 3.0 rc kernels back. After a quick zypper dup I have the new kernels installed and got the fan function back. Thanks for the help.
