Unable to get Fan Control to work!
I have a readynas ultra2 plus with OS6 installed. Howerver I am unable to get the automated fan control to work properly.
When running the pwmconfig tuturioal created by pywong I seem to get stuck and unable to properly configure the fan control. Is this the normal out put for the Ultra 2 plus when running though this tutorial? Do i have to install the drivers?
**************************************************************************************
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `it87':
* ISA bus, address 0xa10
Chip `ITE IT8721F/IT8758E Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9)
Driver `coretemp':
* Chip `Intel digital thermal sensor' (confidence: 9)
Warning: the required module it87 is not currently installed
on your system. If it is built into the kernel then it's OK.
Otherwise, check http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for
driver availability.
Warning: the required module coretemp is not currently installed
on your system. If it is built into the kernel then it's OK.
Otherwise, check http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for
driver availability.
No modules to load, skipping modules configuration.

Im a noob at linux, but im trying. I am unable to find the coretemp.ko or i87.ko modules though. It appears that the download links may be dead just full of adds. :( Know of any other place the could be found? Thanks for your help so far! - chirpaLuminaryYes, I just tried myself, none of them work. I replied in that thread noting the issue.

spider man poseted the files in the other thread that you refereed to. But sadly they did not work. I not sure how to proceed, are those drivers any good? are they even compatible with the Ultra 2 Plus. I tryeed installing thoes modules but i receive this error. are these files even from the same build?
insmod: can't insert 'it87.ko': invalid module format same error with coretemp - chirpaLuminaryYou'll likely have to compile them from GPL sources then.

Have you tried using modprobe?

Whats really interesting is that i did not have the high fan speed noise that other people on this forums are reporting. Its just as quite as it was on 4.2. I have just done a factory default and have only installed lm-sensors. I have tried reading it my self. It looks like the NAS found the drivers themselves without even a mod probe. However i did try modprobe regardless. The command took and i received no feedback from it. Here is a print out of my fan Speeds.
