Hello,
First, thanks for your reply.
I'm confused now because i defined in my asl _AC0, _AC1 and their corespondent _AL0 and _AL1, and Devices for FAN,
and now i can change active status from -1 to 0 or 1.
I enabled debug and i see that my fan1 and fan2 are changing status from D3 to D0 when the temperature is bigger then AC0,
but i'm not sure i defined correct temperatures for AC0 and AC1, because in my asl they were absent, and i defined AC0 at 70C and AC1 at 65C.
I don't know if there values are correct, but now the fan is turned on at 65C and he gets more speed at 70C but it seems that the temperature
is very slow decreased, maybe i'm doing something wrong here :(
You said that it's possible that my fan control is done by something other than ACPI, how can i establish who is responsible with my fans?
Thanks,
Dan
