Yesterday something funny happened on my Inspiron 5000e.  The
cooling fan got into a cycle of running fast for a few seconds and
then slowing down for a few seconds, and repeating ad infinitum.
I had to reboot to cure it.  Is this something that's controlled
by ACPI?  I'm guessing that it probably has something to do with
thermal zones (I remember Mike showing me about that at BSDCon last
year).  Is this something that anyone's looking at, or can someone
hit me with a clue stick so that I can investigate myself?

Joe
