Ticket 866 solution (Examined/Solved - sensors 2.6.4 kernel 2.4.18)

[contact]

I suggest you add this into Ticket 866 at the end:

We had the same problem as reported in ticket 866.

The init=0 did not help

What did help was changing the value of fan_div

Try

echo "2 2 4" >> /proc/sys/dev/sensors/w83782d-i2c-0-2d/fan_div

or

echo "2 2 8" >> /proc/sys/dev/sensors/w83782d-i2c-0-2d/fan_div

Apparently on the A7M266-D motherboard, the third (Chassis) fan registers

zero if the RPM count is below some threshold. So if the fan_div value

is wrong, you get zero RPMS
