Just because of idlehalt=0 am worried to experiment on my lappy with leo due to always on fan which generates extreme heat.

Guys is there any option to start leo without idlehalt=0, but when i tried to boot leo without these boot commands it sticks at apple screen logo, do u think an external HDD could help me out
I checked my fan, and it does kick on and off, and no extra heat (other than normal) is generated. since I do use the "idlehalt=0" kernel flag as well.

As for quick play buttons - must be the distro, or kext, or driver that is installed, btw I am using iDeneb 10.5.7

Resolution: still working...getting closer (I modified some kext's this morning, and lo and behold, it played the movie, and talked during first install - the only problem is I could not see the movie, but only hear it, my screen just sat there at the verbose screen, like refresh didn't kick in or something...but, at least I am getting closer, <keeping fingers crossed>

As for an external HDD, don't think that's gonna really change the fan running, since the system will still run off your processor and everything else, except internal HDD. So I am no for sure, but this would be my logical opinion to that type of situation.
