Bug Description

As I reported in several Forums to get rid of this bug: the Fan of my HP nx6125 (and as some other user commited on there notebooks to [different brands]) doesn't start, because i have to boot using noapic. booting without noapic makes the notebook really slow, so that you can't use it for working. booting with noapic doesn't start the cpu fan, so the notebooks dies because of overheating. Only solution is to wait untin the cpu got tempurature, reboot and then the fan starts, working all over the session in same speed.
disconnecting the notebook from powersupply stops the fan and the notebook once again dies because of overheating.
the notebook has a amd sempron 3000+ cpu and i'm using latest 32-bit dapper (updated via distupgrade).

EDIT: problem seems to be solved sincen edgy.

I've sent a patch to Ben that fixes this - with luck it'll be in the next kernel release.

since the last update to the kernel version 2.6.15-22 the computer doesn t boot correctly, to correct the problem I have to put "noapic" or "acpi=off" at boot in grub
