[Ti] PB Fan Noise/Heat

[Richard Edwards]

Hi Folks
There's a fix for the noise my PB emits much of the day and the heat 
that goes with it
at http://www.deleet.de/ray/pbfanfix.html

The fix
Downgrade the relevant System Extension. It turned out to be:
/System/Library/Extensions/AppleADM103x.kext
This extension handles the temperature readout from certain Analog 
Devices Digital Thermometers over the I2C bus.
First, make a backup of the version that is included in 10.3.2.
The old version for the Extension can be found in the standalone 
updater 10.2.8. Don't run the updater (or quit if it launches 
automatically).
Extract the extension. To extract single files form the Package, get 
something like Pacifist or use the shell.
Copy the extension into /System/Library/Extensions.
Make sure that the owner of the extension and everything inside (it's 
a package and packages are directories) is root and the group is 
wheel. THIS IS IMPORTANT. Otherwise, the system won't load these 
extensions, which may have severe consequences. The Finder displays 
the owner root as system, so this is ok as well.
Reboot.
Enjoy the Silence. (and put on your asbestos gloves again)

It tells me to :

'Make sure that the owner of the extension and everything inside

is wheel.'

I'm not sure how to do that - can anyone here advise ?
