But informations are not clear at all: for instance (after following a lot of symlink) I read files: temp1_input 39000 (39000 what?), temp1_max 45000 (what?), temp1_max_hyst 40000 (what?) Same for temp2 and 3 I got more info using "sensors" command: Sys Temp: +38°C (high = +45°C, hyst = +40°C) CPU Temp: +55.0°C (high = +45.0°C, hyst = +40.0°C) temp3: +67.5°C (high = +80.0°C, hyst = +75.0°C) It seems that CPU is "overheated" but where all this can be configured? And what is the meaning of "hyst"? And what is this 3rd temperature (one more time!) there are also files for fans (x=1, 2, 3, 4) fanx_div fanx_input fanx_min seem to be related to the fan speed.... > > >>I used gkrellm >> >>this gives me 3 temperatures: I cannot know which is which... average of >>temp1 is 40°C, temp2 is 55°C and temp3 125°C >> >>How can I know what is measured by these temperatures? > > > Those are ACPI thermal zones.

What do you mean by "control": speed regulation or > just getting the fan speed value? Speed regulation (and value) but this seems to be available with some fans only.

I can't understand this: <---- Next adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 0400 Do you want to scan it?

And what did you change from the default? Here is infos given on redhat site: <---------- For example, to build the foo.ko module, create the following Makefile in the directory containing the foo.c file: obj-m := foo.o KDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build PWD := $(shell pwd) default: $(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) M=$(PWD) modules Issue the make command to build the foo.ko module. ----------> I tried to compile "fan" module: I replaced "foo" by "fan". this didn't work.... I changed $(shell uname -r) by `uname -r` and same for "$(shell pwd)" for I did not understand what was the exact meaning of this (so did gcc which complained about "unknown command "shell"!)

I run "service cpuspeed start" (no OK displayed), then I check with "service cpuspeed status". Answer is: "cpuspeed is stopped" Thanks for your present answer and, I hope, following lights.... -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Université René Descartes http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte
