i tried with 2.6.12.6, which was the first one on this machine. but
without success.

Good chance your BIOS vendor did not export control of the fun to userspace.
the fans are running up and down acording to the temperature, but i
have no control in /proc nor any info about their state.

So you don't need to have control too.
You could look at your DSDT, it is in /proc/dsdt. it is possible to disassemble it with "iasl" which should
be available either in repository of the packages for your Linux version,
or as part of acpica-unix, available at www.intel.com.
Look for a device with id from /drivers/acpi/fun.c file (PNP*).
If such a device exists, then we should deliver it to you as /proc/acpi/fun/name.
