|
|
Hey all,
I was just wondering, I enabled a watchdog, namely the iTCO_wdt which is for 82801IB (ICH9) LPC Interface Controller.
I noticed that my fan controll isnt working anymore, meaning, if I compile things, the cpu gets hot but fan stays at the same rpm.
I have compiled this driver as a module, not sure whats happens if I compile it IN the kernel (my kernel is 2.6.30-gentoo-r8 64 bit multilib)
My lspci output on my motherboard asus p5k:

CPU is an E8400, normal clock speed
Anyone else have this problem? Or a solution perhaps ?
I would like to use the iTCO_wdt, because I think that hardware controll is much better then software controll (watchdog).
If you want/need more info, let me know and I will provide it.
Best regards, Speccy

Looks like compiling it in the kernel solved this issue for me.
I'll let stress run for a couple of hours and see what happens, if things are still okay, I'll add "solved" to the subject |
