    The fan on my PB 12" 1.5GHz runs continuously, faster when the AC adapter is plugged in, but it runs continuously when on battery power, too. There is a fix to this (to raise the temperature when the fan kicks in) to replace a Tiger file with AppleADM103x.kext but I cannot locate the file. I have read that the AppleADM103x.kext file must be extracted from an earlier update, supposedly 10.2.8, but that download does not include the file. Can anyone help with this issue?
