Please look in your BIOS if there is any option to enable fan speed monitoring and/or control. BTW, does the BIOS display any voltage, temperature or fan speed data? If you can't find a suitable option in your BIOS, we can try to manually enable the fan sensors block. However, in most cases disabled sensors block are disabled because they are effectively unused (physically not wired on the board.) So there are good chances that this will not lead us anywhere. Do you have any reason to believe that fan speed can be monitored and/or controlled on this system in the first place? If you want to continue, I will need the output of the following command: isadump -k 0x55 0x2e 0x2f 0x0a -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/wishlist.html _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
