I didn't ask Lenovo about it. In fact, I didn't even KNOW the X61 had two fans. Does it *really* have two spinning devices? If so, a X61 owner will have to raise his hand and become an intelligent lab rat to help discover how to control said fan. The first thing you can do is to: 1. Make sure there really are two fans, and not just one with two outputs or somesuch 2. Send me the output of acpidump for a completely up-to-date X61 (latest BIOS). 3. Play with the ecdump facility of thinkpad-acpi to track down the tachometer and possible the fan control register for the second fan. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
