The only +important difference is that in RPM mode the 0-100% controls the fan speed +between 0-100% of fan#_full_speed. It is assumed that if the BIOS programs +RPM mode, it will also set fan#_full_speed properly, if it does not then +fan control will not work properly, unless you set a sane fan#_full_speed +value yourself. + +Switching between these modes requires re-initializing a whole bunch of +registers, so the mode which the BIOS has set is kept. The mode is +printed when loading the driver. + +Three different fan control modes are supported; the mode number is written +to the pwm#_enable file. Note that not all modes are supported on all +chips, and some modes may only be available in RPM / PWM mode on the F8000. +Writing an unsupported mode will result in an invalid parameter error. + +* 1: Manual mode + You ask for a specific PWM duty cycle / DC voltage or a specific % of + fan#_full_speed by writing to the pwm# file.
