Ok, but please make sure to use a spiked war hammer, coated in radioactive
rabid platypus blood while at it... it always pay to make it very clear just
how displeased you are with some sorts of behaviour, and nothing drives the
point home as well as a spiked war hammer coated with radioactive rabid
platypus blood driven up one's nose...

Oh dear, it appears that I am still "a bit displeased and annoyed" that some
of those daemons and applets were DoS'ing the kernel (and ibm-acpi) every
few milliseconds asking for fan, thermal and battery readings ;-)
