setting sensor limits to control fan?

[Mario Kofler]

hello,

i already posted this in the ubuntu forum but maybe here i have more luck:

i run intrepid ibex on an acer aspire 1692 and i recognized a message

"setting sensor limits"

during boot up.i wonder if i can change the sensor limits of my fan
during this service.. making it start at a higher CPU temperature.

maybe someone has an idea?

thanks a lot,

greetings,

mario
