However here the settings can be controlled through the bios, thus I believe we should allow modifying them from lm-sensors too (to the limits the bios allows and no more). This ofcourse assumes we manage to find out exactly how these work, to the point where we can say this setting in the BIOs matches that and that byte in X increment units. If it stays as vague as this setting influences those bytes, then I fully agree with you. Regards, Hans
