Boy, I love yum. 2.6.15-1.1831FC4smp kernel is installed now.
I ran sensor-detect and got the same output as before. i.e. no driver
for smsc47m14x/192. So I did a 'modprobe smsc47m1' just in case and
didn't get any error. Output from 'dmesg' was:
smsc47m1: Found SMSC LPC47M15x/LPC47M192/LPC47M997
-------
Ouput from 'sensors' now, is:
~]# sensors
smsc47m1-isa-0800
Adapter: ISA adapter
fan1: 0 RPM (min = 2560 RPM, div = 2)
fan2: 0 RPM (min = 2560 RPM, div = 2)
--------
Obviously, it's not 0. So I ran 'pwmconfig' and instantly, the processor
fans shutoff(because this is SFF, there are 2 fans each side of the
heatsink). Here's the output:
~]# pwmconfig
Found the following PWM controls:
9191-0800/pwm1
9191-0800/pwm2
Found the following fan sensors:
9191-0800/fan1_input current speed: 5585 RPM
9191-0800/fan2_input current speed: 5461 RPM
Warning!!! This program will stop your fans, one at a time,
for approximately 5 seconds each!!!
This may cause your processor temperature to rise!!!
If you do not want to do this hit control-C now!!!
Hit return to continue:
Testing pwm control 9191-0800/pwm1 ...
9191-0800/fan1_input ... speed was 5585 now 0
It appears that fan 9191-0800/fan1_input
is controlled by pwm 9191-0800/pwm1
Fan 9191-0800/fan1_input has not returned to speed, please
investigate!
9191-0800/fan2_input ... speed was 5461 now 0
It appears that fan 9191-0800/fan2_input
is controlled by pwm 9191-0800/pwm1
Fan 9191-0800/fan2_input has not returned to speed, please
investigate!
Testing pwm control 9191-0800/pwm2 ...
9191-0800/fan1_input ... speed was 5585 now 0
It appears that fan 9191-0800/fan1_input
is controlled by pwm 9191-0800/pwm2
Fan 9191-0800/fan1_input has not returned to speed, please
investigate!
9191-0800/fan2_input ... speed was 5461 now 0
It appears that fan 9191-0800/fan2_input
is controlled by pwm 9191-0800/pwm2
Fan 9191-0800/fan2_input has not returned to speed, please
investigate!
Testing is complete.
Please verify that all fans have returned to their normal speed.
The fancontrol script can automatically respond to temperature changes
of your system by changing fanspeeds.
Do you want to set up its configuration file now (y)? y
/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no temperature-capable sensor modules
installed
-----
In the beginning you can see that it reports the fan speeds correctly.
In the bios, it reports similar values. However, while it is able to
successfully shut the fans down, it can't bring them back up(which I
verified was true...and bad, so I rebooted into bios).
Any suggestions here, it looks like there's a way to detect fan speed
and turn it off, now I just need to fine tune it.
