I have a toshiba M30 laptop, on which I have installed freebsd 5.3. I have enabled speedstep support with est and estctrl ports and it seems to work except a little problem: the fan almost never turns on and laptop turns really HOT! I have tried to change some sysctls but they seem to be non-writable. here they are: % sysctl -a|grep thermal hw.acpi.thermal.min_runtime: 0 hw.acpi.thermal.polling_rate: 10 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature: 3512 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.active: -1 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.thermal_flags: 0 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._PSV: 3912 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._HOT: -1 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._CRT: 3922 hw.acpi.thermal.tz0._ACx: 3912 3912 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 391,2 K -- I think it is rather high :) How to change this or make the fan turn on more frequently?
