Message-Id: <519F374B.3070101@gmail.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: lm-sensors@vger.kernel.org This controller is giving people some trouble, as it is shipped in more and more laptops [1] and the fans can become quite annoying in these systems. In the past it was said that the main problem was the lack of a datasheet from ITE [2]. Recently there has been progress from the coreboot projects getting the info for quanta firmware on IT8518 [3]. Can this particular file help with the lack of specs or it depends on other factors? http://review.coreboot.org/gitweb?p=coreboot.git;a=blob;f=src/ec/quanta/it8518/acpi/ec.asl;hu49fa283da69b9b1fca8589b1fc7f59fd30f7a4;hb~568559634199668859b7c662aea7f6b41f3920 In my particular case, I have a noisy clevo p150em. I can help providing testing and perhaps developing - just looking at the code of other modules, it87, it seems to me I could give a hand beyond testing.
