<div>I just set this up on my machine and it works wonderfully. Just install lm-sensors, set up the details for your motherboard using the 'sensors-detect' script, then run 'pwmconfig' to assign each fan hookup on your motherboard to a thermistor temperature sensor output. You can define all the values for increasing the fan speed in increments if you want.</div>

<div>My machine is whisper quiet with this enabled... much louder when I disable it and it sets all the fans to default top-speed.</div>
