Re: regression in linux 3.7 - fan speed at 100% after suspend/resume at 100%

[Roberto Oppedisano <roberto.oppedisano@infracom.it>]

Hi,
     any news about this issue ? I'm still seeing the problem with the 
released 3.7 (and also with 3.7.1).
Let me know if you need more info or testing.

Kind regards
R
