Hi all, |
2 |
|
3 |
I'm facing a little issue with my laptop and cpu fan. |
4 |
|
5 |
When I turn my laptop on, even if the temperature is, for example 35 |
6 |
Celsius, kernel still keeps the cpu fan on. I'd like to know how I could |
7 |
turn it off manually. |
8 |
|
9 |
Why this? |
10 |
|
11 |
Because, as now I got my speedstep working :), my cpu freq keeps down to |
12 |
1.6G and the cpu doesn't get hot so much, so, if I'm using battery, or |
13 |
I'm in an quiet ambient, the cpu fan will be on for a long time... |
14 |
|
15 |
Kernel only turns off my cpu fan after the temperature passes the 48C |
16 |
and come back to 42, 43. And turns it on again when it reaches the 51C. |
17 |
|
18 |
|
19 |
When I reach this level, it is ok. Kernel works as expected turning the |
20 |
fan on and off. The problem is before reaching this level, the fan |
21 |
doesn't turn off. |
22 |
|
23 |
I'd like to know if there is something I could do to tell kernel to turn |
24 |
off my fan if temperature is below 42C for example, even after a fresh |
25 |
boot, when temperature starts with 35C. |
26 |
|
27 |
Thanks in advance. |
