What i mean is, that the fan at this time starts to rotate, when the "radeon display support" is loaded at boot time. Normally the fan should start to work if a special temperature threshold is reached. > > > Here you see the difference between 2.6.21, when it all works correctly, and > > 2.6.22 and 2.6.23: the screen resolution of the boot screen changed to > > the native resolution 1024x768 (in 2.6.21 it still the default terminal > > resolution) > > This only means that the kernel's radeon driver has changed. > > It's difficult to say what's going wrong. > > What's the CPU load when the fan is spinning? > > Greetings, > Rafael The rest of the systems works fine.
