But writing to _min does not seem to have any efect. fan?_min is not a speed control, it is a low speed alarm setpoint. > >Is it possible to control the fan with the above or does the drivers miss something? Controlling fan speed is a different issue, no pwm means the speed control is not available (yet). Check your mobo, I have a similar Winbond chip on a Sempron SktA mobo but no fan speed control hardware. > >If the drivers are missing something, then I'm willing to code whats needed if I can get some hints. If you dual-boot windows you can get a second opinion on hardware with SpeedFan <http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php>, particularly if fans are controllable. Read up on lmsensors site docs, the chip datasheet, and have a go. People here will help. Cheers, Grant.
