(Get the code!)
It should be noted that thinkfan is an optional universe package that runs as a daemon and can be used to control the fans based on configurable temperatures. Misconfiguration could lead to hardware damage and I mention it here as a workaround only and am not advocating its use generally. If using thinkfan, please read the documentation fully (I've deliberately not posted my configuration so people are forced to read the docs). In other words, don't blame me if thinkfan breaks your system. :)
