You're running acpi now. Does the fan work? If so, you're done.

If not, edit /boot/grub/grub.conf (make a backup copy first). Find the
line or lines that start with 'kernel' and add "acpi=off" (without the
quotes) to the end of those lines. Reboot. Now you will be running
apm. If the fan works, then apm is probably what you want. If the fan
still doesn't work, I don't know what to suggest.

By the way, I learned all this by searching and reading the list
archives. It's fun--I recommend it. Find a link at the end of every
list message, or go to

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fedora-list&r=1&w=2

where some good people maintain another archive (with a more reliable
searching tool) of the list.

good luck,
Matt
