If you think it doesn't find something it should, dump the DSDT with acpidmp, disassemble it, and look for "Device" and see what's in there. Some MB's have ACPI fan control, other's don't. cheers, -Len ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
