  Hello, I have a very strange problem. My fan on my laptop stops working when I install back-track. At first, I thought my fan on the computer was broken but when I installed Windows 7 as it began working again. BackTrack 5 works fine when i use it on the USB but so fast i install it on my laptop my fan stops working, It works just as soon as I start my computer and as soon BackTrack 5 starts it stop working.
  
  What is it that can cause this problem? Becouse this problem only occurs when I install back-track on my laptop computer.
  
  My computer is an Acer aspire 5315 and the got an Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 540 @ 1.86 GHz processor.
  
  And the kernel version is "Linux version 2.6.39.4 (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4unbuntu5) "
  
  And the sensors tell this:
  
  Code: acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
templ: +40.0C  (crit = +100.0C)

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0: +89.0C (high = +100.0C, crit = +100.0C) (I am sorry for my bad english but i hope you guys understand)
