Hmm. I wonder how to *enable* it in the first place.. ;) e_powersaver.ko and acpi_cpufreq gives "No such device" > Furthermore, did you do any testing of the board before you took the > fan off? Was it stable then? The thing is that I didn't even try to test it WITHOUT the fan. It makes no difference in themperature (lm_sensors shows 40 degrees celsius under continious run of `openssl speed' with fan, and 39 degrees without fan but with larger headstick). But all the testing are done with the original headstick+fan as provided by VIA. /mjt - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
