+ASUS U36SD Fan Control (v.0.1)
+========================================
+
+This acpi driver, based on previous work by Giulio Piemontese
+(http://github.com/gpiemont/asusfan/) and Dmitry Ursegov 
+(http://code.google.com/p/asusfan/),
+aims to provide a simple way to manage and monitor system fan speed 
+of ASUS U36SD.
+
+For more information on setting speeds and monitoring visit: (http://github.com/gpiemont/asusfan/)
+
+Beware!
+=======
+
+Since the driver overrides the automatic fan speed handling it might damage your hardware!
+I'm using it daily in production and had no problems so far, but use it at your own risk!
+You've been warned :)
+
+Installation:
+=============
+
+You should be fine with the defaults, but you might want to first modify temperature zone table inside asus_u36sd_fan.c to suit your needs
+
+* git clone https://github.com/lusk/asus_u36sd_fan.git
+* cd asus_u36sd_fan-master
+* sudo su
+* mkdir /usr/src/asus_u36sd_fan-0.1
+* cp -a * /usr/src/asus_u36sd_fan-0.1/
+* dkms add -m asus_u36sd_fan -v 0.1
+* dkms build -m asus_u36sd_fan -v 0.1
+* dkms install -m asus_u36sd_fan -v 0.1
+* add a line with asus_u36sd_fan in /etc/modules if you want it to be loaded automaticaly during boot
+
+If you are using this..
