Comment 6 for bug 410596

Hi,

Sam's trick is working for me (Dell Latitude E5420)
I'm running Natty on x86_64 and I did specify some options to compile smm: gcc -g -O2 -Wall -I. -o smm -m32 -march=i386 smm.c

sudo ./smm 30a3 # turns off BIOS fan control

i8kmon now can control the fan. BTW here my /etc/i8kmon.conf:
set config(0) {{0 0} -1 60 -1 65}
set config(1) {{1 1} 55 70 58 75}
set config(2) {{1 2} 60 80 65 85}
set config(3) {{2 3} 70 128 75 128}
