In my case, ACPI module does not change the fan speed, but loading the lm_sensors kernel module (i2c) does. The reason is that the modules writers, as they don't have all the specs they need, find it safer to reinitialize the whole sensors. Do you have the sensors loaded or compiled in ? If this is actually the cause of the problem, and if you really want sensors in your kernel, removing the reinitialization is really a one-liner. =C9ric Brunet On Tue, Oct 07, 2003 at 09:45:03PM -0400, Eric Northup wrote: > I have a Shuttle mini-PC currently running linux 2.6-test6 (but I have > seen this issue w/all kernels I've tried, 2.4.x and 2.5.x).
