Subject: [PATCH RESEND 3/3] acerhdf: Lowered default temp fanon/fanoff
 values

From: Peter Feuerer <peter@...e.net>

Due to new supported hardware, of which the actual temperature limits of
processor, harddisk and other components are unknown, it feels safer
with lower fanon / fanoff settings.

It won't change much for most people, already using acerhdf, as they use
their own fanon/fanoff variable settings when loading the module.

Furthermore seems like kernel and userspace tools have been improved
to work more efficient and netbooks don't get so hot anymore.
