I managed to get it working, see: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-eeepc-devel/2008-October/001490.html Basically you configure fancontrol with these settings: # Configuration file generated by pwmconfig, changes will be lost INTERVAL=10 FCTEMPS=hwmon1/pwm1=hwmon0/temp1_input FCFANS= hwmon1/pwm1=hwmon1/fan1_input MINTEMP=hwmon1/pwm1=53 MAXTEMP=hwmon1/pwm1=60 MINSTART=hwmon1/pwm1=50 MINSTOP=hwmon1/pwm1=40 Let us know if it works for you.
