For automatic fan speed control (not limited to this chip), how much can automatic control be configured? Some configuration options I do think about: - temperature thresholds (e.g. to choose balance between cool and silent) - link between temperature input and controlled fan Are such features provided by the chips (chips of direct interest to me are IT8712F, nforce420, [W83697HG]) Depending on what chips are capable of, how much of it does lm_sensors implement and how is it expected to be used?
