aticonfig --pplib-cmd doesn't work

[naim]

aticonfig utility doesn't work properly.For example :
aticonfig --od-gettemperature
ERROR - Get temperature failed for the Default Adapter - ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics

and another

aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 15"
PPLIB command execution has failed!
ati_pplib_cmd: execute "set" failed!

How to fix this?
Soft:
Driver is amd catalyst 11.2
kernel 2.6.37 from liquorix repository
Distr : debian squeeze.

I'm not sure if the hd 3200 even has a temperature sensor.

The pplib command doesn't work here either, but I don't have a fan on the chip anyway. I think the command is correct though. Maybe you can control your fan via lm_sensors?

As i know the lm_sensors just show the temperatures.
I also have the HD 3650 adapter. For it output is same :
aticonfig --od-gettemperature --adapter=1
ERROR - Get temperature failed for Adapter 1 - ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650

but this command works
aticonfig --adapter=0 --od-getclocks

Adapter 0 - ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics
Core (MHz) Memory (MHz)
Current Clocks : 196 0
Current Peak : 500 400
Configurable Peak Range : [500-500] [400-400]
GPU load : 7%

but command like set-powerstate, --adapter=1 --od-getclocks, and etc(which rely to power controling and fan controling) doesn't work.

If

aticonfig --list-adapters

only returns one string with your graphics chip's name in it, --adapter=0 is probably what you want to use for all the commands.

I doubt you can use aticonfig to tune fan speed in a laptop.

The list-adapters return the 2 entries:

ticonfig --list-adapters
* 0. 01:05.0 ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics
1. 02:00.0 ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650

* - Default adapter

I think there is a way to control fan speed on my Asus PRO57t,because windows drive does it.
