Re: New idea on CPU fan problem

2005-11-25 Thread PARAMVIR DHINDSA
It's not very clear. May you please elaborate on  that. Actually I want to know 
whether I can replace the kernel (generic  kernel of OpenBSD with that of 
floppy37.fs one)

Did you try disabling lm0?

(use config for that or the -c boot option)

   Dear Sir,
   
  I want to know whether I can replace the generic kernel included in the  
 OpenBSD distribution with Kernel included in the bootable(installation)  
 floppy as problem of CPU fan is not present in that (floppy37.fs) case.  If 
 yes, please let me know how to perform it.

 I performed the mentioned steps. I even wrote
 hw.setperf=10 in /etc/sysctl.conf but it couldn't
 resolve the problem of CPU fan (running constantly).
 Is it a bug in the operating system? (I'm not facing
 this problem while running Windows or FreeDOS)

  I am not sure if celeron supports this but
  you might try setting hw.setperf to something less
  than 100%.
  Again only will work if its supported.
  sysctl -a|grep setperf
  If you get something then try setting it down when
  idle
  sysctl -w hw.setperf=10
  If you do not have it then I am not sure.
  
  Hope this helps.

   Dear Sir,
   I installed the OpenBSD 3.7 on my Compaq PC. I'm
   facing a problem. The CPU fan runs constantly
   (non-stop) whenever I boot on OpenBSD which has
  become
   a nuisance for me as well as my near and dear
  ones.
   Although top command shows that my CPU is sitting
   idle, yet the fan keeps on running until I stop my
  PC.
   Can you help me out.
  
   Hardware:
   Intel Celeron D (2.66 GHz).
   Intel Chipset 845GV chipset.
   128 MB RAM.
   40 GB HDD.
  
   I'm providing dmesg as under:

Do not cross post to many lists.

You may have issues with other drivers. People use to be able to solve 
thinks like this by booting using boot -c and disabling stuff in the ukc.


Search for ukc openbsd fan speed or so in google or in the archives.
