Abit doesn't release (probably doesn't even have) a datasheet for this chip, my driver is reverse engineered, but has been tested successfully by about 6 people on 5 different abit motherboards. > Unfortunately I can't share the datasheet for the DME1737, I'm under NDA. > > I'll try to take a look at your patch next week. > Some first comments as a result of looking at the documentation, do we really want these options: ? +* force_temp_map: bool Force the temp-to-zone mapping to the default, which is + temp1->zone1, temp2->zone2, temp3->zone3.

If one must pass force_temp_map, then one must probably also change pwm[1-3]_auto_channels_temp to match, or otherwise the wrong temp is used for regulating the fan speed! Maybe your driver could automaticly do this adjusting? Then it would become less dangerous imho. force_fan_map is even worse, then if indeed a fan is attached to fan sensor 1, but pwm output 2, the speed regulation becomes totally broken! I must say I cannot imagine a motherboard manufacturer doing something like this, and thus I question the usefullness of this option. Atleast the doc should be much more clear that this is dangerous and could cause once computer to overheat. Regards, Hans
