Fan speed control on laptops is almost always achieved by either ACPI or a vendor-specific kernel driver, not regular hwmon drivers. That seems to be exactly your case. For Compal laptops, there's a kernel module named - surprise surprise - compal-laptop which you should try. I don't know what features it offers exactly but that should be a good starting point. If it doesn't work for your model then maybe you need a more recent version of the driver, or support for your model needs to be added to the driver. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
