Is available as a kernel module. To launch it on a powermac G5:

modprobe therm_pm72

Note that G4 windtunnel powermanagement is also available as a module.

Best regards,

I was trying to install Gentoo on my dual 2ghz G5 the other day, I made sure to include thermal management in the kernel and put therm_pm72 in the /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 file. However, when I rebooted my machine for the first time, the fans stayed at 100%, even when I wasn't doing anything with it. The module seems to be loaded, because it shows up under lsmod, and it works perfectly when I boot into the livecd. Does anyone have any ideas? Do you have to turn something else on in the kernel for it to work?

Did you run modules-update after editing /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6? I have forgotten to do this on several occasions.

The 2004.1_rc3 livecds have network and thermal management build into the kernel. No more modprobing needed.
