Hi,
Please look at bugzilla.kernel.org #7570, it could be same issue.

> CPU fan shuts down on load of fan.ko in kernel 2.6.18 and later
Thanks for the feedback - but it may be a different problem. First it occurs in a fully booted machine on insmod fan.ko (rather than on resume), and second, the patch for that bug does not fix it (2.6.20-rc2 tree).
