If you have a single-plan CPU, this value doesn't make sense and you should add an "ignore in1" statement to you config file. > fan1: 2045 RPM (min = 1500 RPM, div = 4) > fan2: 1599 RPM (min = 1500 RPM, div = 4) > fan3: 1339 RPM (min = 1500 RPM, div = 4) Your fans are running really low.

Then, my analysis is that you have two different versions of libsensors on your disk. One old for ksensors/ksysguard, and one new for sensors. Running ldd on these binaries should confirm that. In that case, you should use a configuration file that work for both (which means,: that work for the old library, since the new library is already OK). To do so, either strip your current file so that it only contains the w83627hf-* section (you just don't care about the others), or get etc/sensors.conf.eg from lm_sensors-2.7.0 or older, until it's OK. > > > Ok, in the meantime, I'm running varyfan very succesfully...

Would you have some time to give them a try and tell us how they behave compared with varyfan? I'd appreciate that. Thanks. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
