I'd need more information.
Are there options related to fan speed control in your BIOS? If there
are, what are they set to?
What is the fan status at boot time (i.e. before loading the w83627hf
driver)?
Thanks,

OK.

None, as far as I know. Just a System Health page to see status.

Fans running. (two fans atached to the system fan connector on the
mainboard)

OK, so let me summarize what I understood:
* When your computer boots, fans are spinning.
* If you load the w83627hf driver with no parameter, the fans stop.
* If you instead load the w83627hf driver with reset=1, the fans don't
stop.
Is that it? If so, I consider it a critical issue which needs to be
addressed quickly.
If "sensors -s" is run as part of your init scripts, please remove it
and check again, I'd like to get it out of the list of suspects.
Which kernel are you using? Is it from your distribution, or
self-compiled?
Do you also have the w83781d driver loaded?
What if you load w83627hf with init=0 (and not reset=1)?
Thanks,

Not entirely.
If I rename w83627hf.ko to something else and reboot, the fans stop.
Then I rename w83627hf.ko back to its original name and do modprobe
(without stuff in modprobe.conf) and the fans stay still.
I rmmod w83627hf and then try with the reset=1 parameter.
Only then the fans start spinning.

Depending on the cause, yes.
See my description, also without the w83627hf driver the fans stop. (!?)

Is it part of fedora startup scripts? I will do a grep.

2.6.18.1, self compiled. I can mail you my config.
> Do you also have the w83781d driver loaded?
Not that I am aware. I only enabled sensors drivers for historical
reasons or for this new board.
> What if you load w83627hf with init=0 (and not reset=1)?
Will try that later.

$PSENSORS -s is in the lm_sensors startup script.
