[lm-sensors] Fan speed on hp d530

[Jon]

Hi list,

I have some problems with setting the fan speed on my hp d530 desktop.
I saw a ticket (closed) in the tracker #1837 which said it was
examined/resolved in lm_sensors 2.8.8 Linux 2.6.9. I'm using sensors
2.10.0 with kernel 2.6.15-1-686 (debian-testing) and I can't get it to
work (and the cpu fan sounds like a vacuum cleaner, doing its best to
drive me nuts). I get reasonable data from everything but the fans:
# sensors
adt7463-i2c-0-2e
Adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at fc00

V1.5:      +0.000 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +3.32 V)   ALARM
VCore:     +1.339 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +2.99 V)
V3.3:      +3.283 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.38 V)
V5:       +5.111 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +6.64 V)
V12:      +0.125 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max = +15.94 V)
CPU_Fan:      0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
fan2:         0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
fan3:         0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
fan4:         0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
CPU:      +34.25?C  (low  =   +50?C, high =   +55?C)     ALARM
Board:    +39.00?C  (low  =   +45?C, high =   +50?C)     ALARM
Remote:   +60.25?C  (low  =   +60?C, high =   +65?C)     ALARM
CPU_PWM:    57
Fan2_PWM:  255
Fan3_PWM:  255
vid:      +1.387 V  (VRM Version 10.0)

There are no _div-files for the fans:
ls fan1* pwm1*
fan1_input  fan1_min  pwm1  pwm1_auto_channels  pwm1_auto_pwm_freq
pwm1_auto_pwm_min  pwm1_auto_pwm_minctl  pwm1_enable

Running pwmconfig fails with "echo: write error: Input/output error"
for all three (gives that when trying to write to pwmx_enable).

I know it's possible to control the fans as the co worker having this
box before me ran windows and he told me he ran some app to limit the
speed but I can't figure out how to do it in Linux.

Anyone that has a clue?

Thanks
Jon

I experience the same problem at the moment with tyan S2466N. I can get 
the sensor data but can't control the fans :(((
And I trying to get work since 3 days, I write letter even to my 
motherboard manufactur, but first I need to go through some insane 
process until I can contact with them so good luck!
If you can control them from windows with speedfan thats a good sign 
man, because I can't :(
Try motherboard monitor too.

Hi all,

This is known error. None of us has the lm85 chip which is very complex. I
remember Henrique wanted to fix this but unfortunately he has not found time for
that. Lets see what he will answer ;)
