Is this feature mentioned somewhere in the doc of the server? If it's handled by the BIOS, then there usuallly are some controls in the BIOS. Never heard of a machine that does automatic fan control without providing some knobs through the BIOS. If your BIOS doesn't have any, it's unlikely, that there is HW supported fan control. ...Juerg > Thus my search for a > driver + userspace solution. > > Thanks, > Andrew > > _______________________________________________ > lm-sensors mailing list > lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors > _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
