Sun Fire T1000 loud fans

[Yuri Spirin-2]

Hello, sparc@.

Would you please share some way (if exist at all) to make T1000 a little
more silent with OpenBSD 4.3 installed? It's mighty cooling fans are as
loud as F-16 taking off :)

Thank you.

Yuri Spirin.

I really don't think you can turn down the fans, even in Solaris.

Is your firmware up to date?  ISTR there being a BIOS update that
addresses the issue.
