Hello, I am trying to keep my cpu fan noise down with fancontrol but the lowest possible fan speed I can reach is around 1060 RPM and I am looking for ways to slow the fan down or stop it. Hoping that you will be able to help me solve the problem I include all the information that might be relevant and helpful: I am using lm_sensors-3.1.2-2.svn5857 on fedora 13 with kernel 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.x86_64 installed on IBM Intellistation M. Detailed hardware profile of my pc is available at http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pub_1a7d5446-bb08-4077-9820-8057f30e4b63 . sensors-detect detected adt7468 device and here is a part of the sensors command output: adt7468-i2c-2-2e Adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 3080 in0: +2.49 V (min = +2.38 V, max = +2.62 V) Vcore: +1.14 V (min = +0.82 V, max = +1.40 V) +3.3V: +3.36 V (min = +2.97 V, max = +3.63 V) +5V: +5.12 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.50 V) +12V: +12.23 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +15.94 V) fan1: 1064 RPM (min = 0 RPM) fan2: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM) fan3: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM) fan4: -1 RPM (min = 0 RPM) temp1: +32.0ÂC (low = +49.0ÂC, high = +21.0ÂC) ALARM M/B Temp: +28.5ÂC (low = -63.0ÂC, high = -65.0ÂC) temp3: +24.5ÂC (low = +34.0ÂC, high = -65.0ÂC) ALARM cpu0_vid: +1.419 V The complete sensors command output is attached. I ran pwmconfig and here is the the relevant part: Testing pwm control hwmon5/device/pwm1 ... hwmon5/device/fan1_input ... speed was 5192 now 1011 It appears that fan hwmon5/device/fan1_input is controlled by pwm hwmon5/device/pwm1 ... PWM 255 FAN 5004 PWM 240 FAN 5192 PWM 225 FAN 5187 ..... PWM 6 FAN 4011 PWM 4 FAN 3958 PWM 2 FAN 3890 PWM 0 FAN 2359 I am attaching the resulting /etc/fancontol file. In the hwmon5.values file i am also attaching the files and their values as contained in /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon5/device (the result of: for file in `ls -1 .`;do echo -n $file " -> "; cat $file; done) When in BIOS the CPU fan runs at constant speed of ~1400 RPM and I see no obvious BIOS options or settings to control it. I am also attaching the sensors3.conf file. I would be very grateful if somebody could help me make the system quieter. Thank you very much in advance Peio Popov
