I've got a problem booting kernel-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 I'm using an eMachine T2240 system. CPU: CPU, CEL-2.2G/128K/F400,mPGA478,SL6RW CPEMIN100155 CPU Fan Type: Fan, H/SINK:117162CBL01,MPGA,P4P-2.4G,W/ (The above was collected from: http://parts.emachines.com/emachines/sys_lookup.asp ) When I boot the 18-1.2200 kernel the CPU cooling fan power off as the words, “Uncompressing Linux Kernel....Ok booting kernel.” appear on the screen. Prior to this kernel I've had a problem where the fan will power off when the CPU heats up too much. That still occurs with kernel-2.6.17-1.2187_FC5 and earlier. But now with kernel-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 the fan powers off immediately at boot time. Is there something I can do to correct this problem. I'm admittedly not particularly knowledgeable in this area. Thank much for the help. James.
