Re: Intel Atom thermal sensors

Hi!

I was able to answer most of my questions reading lm85 document,
source and .adt7468 specifications document.

And Atom thermal sensors should be available in Ubuntu 10.04, which is
coming out hopefully today...

Now the last (for now) question I have is about fan speed...
I see it sometimes reported as 675000 RPM
I found this closed ticket: http://www.lm-sensors.org/ticket/2179 and
also read fan-divisors document, but it is still not clear to me what
I need to do to get correct speed reading... I guess, I need to
increase fan divisor?

Thanks,
Dmitry
