Hello >> I use lm-sensors version 2.9.2-5ubuntu3 (I am on the last stable Ubunutu 6.06). >> My chipset is a Winbond W83697HF and my mobo is a MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R (MS-6702). >> I have the same problem : be careful, the topic reads w83627hf and its registers are different from the ones in w83697hf and w83627ehf. >> However, I'm sure the fan is controllable in speed because under Windows (only >> :( ), MSI provides a software (CoreCenter) that works perfectly (in "thermal" >> or "speed cruise", speed regulated between 1500 and 2600 rpm). Still under >> windows XP, I tested SpeedFan and I had the same problem than with pwmconfig. >> The only way I succeeded in reducing the speed was to low the clock of PWM >> clock frequency, which you propose. w83697hf is supported by rtsensors, rtsensors is an applicattion i wrote some time ago, but it works like a charm for me you can get it here http://www.tinet.org/~com.ea/rtsensors/ as w83697HF and w83627EHF are the same in terms of pwm and pwmclock registers ... (correct me if not) they both can be controlled with rtsensors > >1) rmmod w83627hf > so the driver wont be confused >2) reprogram the chip to bank 0 > isaset 0x295 0x296 0x4e 0x00 >3) reprogram the value > isaset 0x295 0x296 0x0 0x84 > >For fan2 it would be in register 2 bank 0 > isaset 0x295 0x296 0x2 0x84 > >4) modprobe w83627hf >5) pwmconfig > this will only work for w83627ehf and w83697hf, NOT for w83627hf ! be careful Carlos
