Re: [PLUG] lm_sensors and fan speed

Hi Art:
Please don't strip the lm-sensors list from the CC's.

OK, that's quite old as far as the relevant driver is concerned. There are at
least two patches since 2.6.12 that I think might solve it. But you won't need
to rebuild a kernel to find out. Just add this line to /etc/modules.conf:
options w83627hf init=0
Unfortunately, it will take a reboot for this to take effect. (The driver
already overwrote whatever BIOS inits were performed, the only way to get
them back is to "run" the BIOS.)
I suggest the init=0 module option because it will make your (older) version
of the driver behave more like the default of the latest version - especially
with respect to the two patches that I think might solve it.
Or, you could just upgrade your kernel to something like 2.6.14 or later.

Other questions: does 'sensors -s' appear anywhere in your init scripts?
Are you happy with the output of 'sensors', or do you want to dive into
its config a bit to get better info? If you're only interested in CPU
temperature via some KDE program, then what you have is good enough.
PS: I'll be AFK Sat 10th, able to reply again 11th
