Hi guys,
I hope you can help. I'm trying to control my case fan using fancontrol. My motherboard does have "Fan xpert" on the CPU & CHASSIS1 Fans but I'm trying to keep my hard drives cool and, I'm guessing, this feature adjusts the fan speeds based on the motherboard or CPU temps which is no good.
Anyway, I've run sensors-detect and it's run through without issue and running "sensors" results in the following output:
Code:
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0: +36.0°C (high = +78.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1: +36.0°C (high = +78.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
atk0110-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
Vcore Voltage: +1.08 V (min = +0.80 V, max = +1.60 V)
+3.3 Voltage: +3.26 V (min = +2.97 V, max = +3.63 V)
+5 Voltage: +4.99 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.50 V)
+12 Voltage: +12.21 V (min = +10.20 V, max = +13.80 V)
CPU FAN Speed: 897 RPM (min = 600 RPM)
CHASSIS1 FAN Speed: 0 RPM (min = 600 RPM)
POWER FAN Speed: 0 RPM (min = 600 RPM)
CPU Temperature: +27.5°C (high = +60.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)
MB Temperature: +42.0°C (high = +45.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)
Note: I've currently removed the fans from the CHASSIS1 & POWER FAN connectors for the time being until I've got this issue solved as they were causing the fans to run too slowly and my hard drives were getting too hot.
I've installed fancontrol and when I run pwmconfig it gives me "There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed". This is the content of my /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1 folder. fan3_* is my CHASSIS Fan. I note all files are read-only for root.

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04LTS 64bit and my motherboard in an ASUS P5Q-EM.
Can someone give me some pointers on how to get pwmconfig to work properly?
Many thanks,
Ian.
