Ok good progress. Using su I am able to echo in values to pwm1_enable and successfully control fanspeed with echo to pwm1!! However I am still unable to get pwmconfig to work, it seems it still cannot set any values (if I set pwm1_enable to 1 before running, pwmconfig will stop the fan, but still reports pwm1 stuck to 0, manual control mode not supported...). As I am completely new to linux, I am not sure now if I am running pwmconfig correctly. I downloaded the 3.1.01 package and extracted pwmconfig; renamed it pwmconf3101 and ran it under su by typing in /path/pwmconf3101 I tried creating a fancontrol config file manually and it seems to be working ok so far (running with sudo), I guess I can try to tune the settings manually if I can't get pwmconfig to work. Thanks so much for your assistance with this!
