Surprise, surprise... Of course there's no driver for the fans [edit: well, seems that's not the case], as well as many other things, as these machines are meant to run Apple's Mac OS X operating system. You can try to hack it if you want, but you have no right to complain and pretend there's "trouble" and that there's a "catch"

Oh, and according to the posting guidelines, your title is too general.

PS: congratulations, one of your first post without a spam link!

It is not true. The fans run just fine.
