fancontrol

laptop lg-P1, OpenSuse 11.2, Gnome 2.28

At strong heating of the processor, the fan works not on a total power (in Windows all normally). As a result the laptop is not enough cooled.
How to force to work the fan is stronger?

Please HELP

This is a long shot because my fan control problem was different (it would only come on, and stay, at maximum) and so was the laptop (a Toshiba Satellite Pro) but I solved it by editing the GRUB menu.lst to include the boot option acpi_osi=“Linux”. Might be worth a try.
