I guess the BIOS only setups fan 1 and the *cough* brilliant *cough* BIOS
developers decided to just write 00 as value for the other fans, sigh.
There are really 2 things we can do here:
1) Overwrite the BIOS settings, tricky, could do this with a module option
2) Instead of not binding the driver at all, allow the driver initialization
to continue normally, but don't register the pwm interface. This requires
some thinking wrt modifying the code a bit though.
1 is a really bad idea IMHO, so I'll think a bit about doing 2.
And of course option 0, to start with, is to check for a BIOS update
for the board in question, and report to the vendor if no BIOS fix is
available yet.
I'm afraid that is very wishful thinking, but it makes sense to
try a BIOS update first. Daniel, can you see if there is one and
if it helps?

Hans
