Well, that's what fanX_div is meant for. As far as I know, the number of pulse/rotation depends mostly on the fan itself, not on the monitoring chipset. That's why we let the users change the fanX_div value through the config file. Maybe there's actually something to be fixed in the adm1026 driver, but maybe this is just a matter of setting the right fanX_div for unregular fans. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
