Forget about my previous mail, I think what happened is that a make clean is needed if arch is changed, and I had typoed --arch powercp before restarting with --arch powerpc... The fan control seems to work well when built directly in the kernel: the machine is very silent, and the fan seems to turn a little bit faster if there is load on the processor. Thank you very much, Ben ! Shall I file a whishlist bug asking the modules to be build directly in the debian-powerpc kernel, or is it overly bureaucratic as Sven will likely read this mail ? -- Charles -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
