Hello. I'm a Spanish user. I don't speak very well English, I'm sorry.
My problem: PWMconfig don't detect modules:
$ pwmconfig
# pwmconfig revision 5630 (2009-01-29)
This program will search your sensors for pulse width modulation (pwm)
controls, and test each one to see if it controls a fan on
your motherboard. Note that many motherboards do not have pwm
circuitry installed, even if your sensor chip supports pwm.
We will attempt to briefly stop each fan using the pwm controls.
The program will attempt to restore each fan to full speed
after testing. However, it is ** very important ** that you
physically verify that the fans have been to full speed
after the program has completed.
/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed
This is my lm_sensors:
# Generated by sensors-detect on Wed Apr 22 22:22:34 2009
# This file is sourced by /etc/rc.d/lm_sensors and defines the modules to
# be loaded/unloaded.
#
# The format of this file is a shell script that simply defines variables:
# HWMON_MODULES for hardware monitoring driver modules, and optionally
# BUS_MODULES for any required bus driver module (for example for I2C or SPI).
HWMON_MODULES="adt7473 coretemp w83627ehf"
# For compatibility reasons, modules are also listed individually as variables
# MODULE_0, MODULE_1, MODULE_2, etc.
# You should use BUS_MODULES and HWMON_MODULES instead if possible.
MODULE_0=adt7473
MODULE_1=coretemp
MODULE_2=w83627ehf
Sensors:
$ sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0: +42.0°C (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
coretemp-isa-0001
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 1: +37.0°C (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
coretemp-isa-0002
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 2: +34.0°C (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
coretemp-isa-0003
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 3: +33.0°C (high = +82.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Here, in Spain, I don't get any answer:P. I think in this forum you can solve my problem.
Thanks!!!

Hi.
I don't think the lm_sensors file is handled automatically by ARCH.
If you need to load extra modules you should instead add them in the MODULES section in /etc/rc.conf
So:
1) Add: adt7473 coretemp w83627ehf to the list of modules in /etc/rc.conf
2) Reboot
3) pwmconfig

Mmmm... I think I tried this, but I can try again. Thanks.

Hope it works out!
If you still are having problems maybe your motherboard is unsupported?

Mmm... I just tried this, but it's the same. My motherboard is "ASUS P5Q-E". In Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bits I can do this with SpeedFan.
My rc.conf is this:

What can I do?
Thank you very much!!

you can follow your first way to load the modules (inserting them in lm-sensors.conf). of corse you must add the sensors deamon in rc.conf
for coretemp: out of the box
for adt7473: i think this is a sensors chip in your nvidia graphic card. sorry but i have no experience with that.
for w83627ehf: add in modprobe.conf
options w83627ehf force_id=0x8860
and you are okay whit the sensor chip. dunno for rpm fan regulation, i use q-fan.

Oh, yeah!! Thanks, it's this!! modprobe.conf...xDD...
The question are solved now, thank you very much, Engelbrekt and max.bra.
