I've been unable to apply your patch cleanly on top of 2.6.11-rc1-mm1, but eventually I've managed to apply it manually. I can confirm it works as expected. Without parameters I get in dmesg: it87: Found IT8705F chip at 0x290, revision 2 it87 0-0290: Detected broken BIOS defaults, disabling PWM interface No pwm appears in sysfs and the missing linefeed has been fixed Adding "options it87 fix_pwm_polarity=1" in modules.conf I get: it87: Found IT8705F chip at 0x290, revision 2 it87 0-0290: Reconfiguring PWM to active high polarity PWM controllers appear in sysfs, the fan doesn't stop running at load time and pwm values are now in normal direction: (0 stops, 255 runs full-speed).
