[rescue] noisy fan on sunpci II card - any fix?

[Robert Darlington]

Try peeling up the sticker (I'm assuming there is a sticker on it).
If you can see the spindle of the motor, use a quarter drop of light
machine oil to lube it.  Not all fans can be lubed this way, but for
those that can be, this method actually works and the motors
immediately quiet down to original levels.
