Thanks. I'm going settle for Q-Fan for now. It works reasonably
well for my purpose. I guess it could also be that when you
disable Q-Fan Asus forces the fans to max speed no matter what.
Although it does seem a little strange. With Q-Fan enabled I can
see the pwm values fluctuate, so the driver is peeking at the
values in the right place. But if / when I get the kernel updated
I will give it another go and report my findings. Thanks for
the help.
