Re: Sensors in adt746x

hi, I've tried your patch, but I can't comment on the changes syncing the fans because my powerbook just has one. But when watching the behaviour of the fan speed stepping code I noticed that it happens quite often that when reducing the fan speed it will get set to values < fan_speed because

powerbook fan behaviour, therm_adt7467

hi, I've got a question about the fan behaviour on powerbooks using the therm_adt7467 module: I've noticed that the fan seems the start correctly (when the cpu temperature reaches the given limit), however, it starts to spin pretty quickly, causing a lot of noise. Under MacOS X, the fan spins

startx segfaults on latest powerbook 12", sid

hi, i'm trying to setup xfree86 on my powerbook 12" (the latest one with the 64MB nvidia card). However, startx stops with sig 11 (segfault). I've tried it with the stock debian 2.6.7-powerpc kernel as well as a 2.6.8.1 kernel that I've compiled myself. My XFree86 configuration basically is wha
