Well I might just disable the Fan support in Kernel, since it aint doing
nothing.
My laptop comes with a application called "LG On Screen Display" that allows
the user, under Windows, to control the wireless, bluetooth, fan, audio volume
and surrond system. For what I could get out of it (trough debugging since LG
support suck in this kind of matters), is that it's using WMI for some stuff
the application does. After checking in the Kernel the WMI experimental support
I started looking at the driver code and found out that WMI is related to EC
and a device called AWM0 (PNP0C14 is the important string here, 'cause it also
can be found in the LG application). After that I started checking the acer-wmi
code and I will try to port the Windows application functionality to Linux, and
maybe I will come up in the future with something like a lge-wmi :P
I just need to get the GUID for my laptop, what values are needed to
write/read, ect... figure out how it works. More debugging on the way :) as
well as some documentation reading :(
