I don't mean the fan or the disk; those | sounds are expected. The laptop makes ticking/buzzing noises that are | correlated to CPU use. Examples are scrolling an X window, moving the | mouse on some applications, compiling, and the like. This happens running | FreeBSD *or* Win2K. BTW I've noticed on various LCD screens various noises coming from it during various X updates or screen savers. Sometime on the ThinkPad 770Z strage noises come from the speakers area that seems related to the screen. Usually it's a temporary thing. Doug A.
