Message #00264
Re: No fan control
Thanx, miegiel, useful link, but Archlinux lm_sensors are correctly
configured - or at least relevant modules are in lsmod:
# lsmod | grep i2c
i2c_dev 5570 0
i2c_algo_bit 4935 1 i915
i2c_i801 8422 0
i2c_core 18137 6
i2c_dev,videodev,i915,drm,i2c_algo_bit,i2c_i801
However, sensors-detect reports an unknown I/O chip:
Trying family `National Semiconductor'... Yes
Found unknown chip with ID 0xfc11
The script you refer to is 'fancontrol', but 'pwconfig' can be used to find
fan controls. Mine drops:
/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed
BIOS is rather buggy:
