Hi,
here is the output for

This doesn't seem to me to be what I think you are looking for. I had a look
around inside of these files, and didn't really find anything useful. I will
have a look at the link to kernel documentation that you provided to see what I
can learn from it.
As far as the fans, there is only one cooling fan on the laptop. It runs at at
least two speeds, high or low but maybe more, depending on temperature output
inside the laptop. The problem was with earlier kernels that it doesn't start
the fan up at all, later ones are sort of hit or miss at high temperatures.
I think that I may have been providing the last few replies for bash command
results from 11.4, where the fan works with these 3.2.10 and 3.3.x kernels. I
will repeat the commands with 12.1 and post them here for you to look over and
compare the results. Maybe something obvious will stand out.
