This tutorial is for thinkfan_0.8.1-1! (present int Ubuntu Trusty default repos)
=================================================
That's what I've done so far:
Code:
sudo apt-get -y install tp-smapi-dkms thinkfan lm-sensors read-edid i2c-tools
Code:
sudo modprobe -a tp_smapi
Fineprint: If you are installing on a recent Thinkpad that has an Ivy Bridge or newer processor [X230, T430(s), T530, etc.],
tp_smapi will not work. You will be mostly limited to thinkpad-acpi capabilities.
You can however set battery charge thresholds with tpacpi-bat.
But you need to have TLP version 0.7.0 and acpi-call for tpacpi-bat to work
You might want to check out which fan levels your fan controller
supports by doing something like this:
Code:
sudo su
for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do
echo "level $i" > /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
echo "level $i..."
sleep 6
cat /proc/acpi/ibm/fan | egrep "^speed"
echo
done
[ENTER]
[ENTER]
echo "level auto" > /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
[ENTER]
The last echo command is to set your fan back on automatic hardware regulated mode!
If you don't set it back to "auto"(hardware regulated) mode, your laptop fan stays at full-speed mode!
I'd recommend to have two terminal windows open. One window is for using the script
the other window is for setting the level back to "auto" mode.
My T430's readouts are:
Code:
level 0...
speed: 2012
level 1...
speed: 2529
level 2...
speed: 3048
level 3...
speed: 4021
level 4...
speed: 4132
level 5...
speed: 4587
level 6...
speed: 5415
level 7...
speed: 5347
Code:
find /sys/devices -type f -name "temp*_input"
As you are going to see I have added "sensor" before the actual sensor location "/sys/devices/virtual/hwmon/hwmon0/temp1_input".
This enables the sensor in /etc/thinkfan.conf.
My version of /etc/thinkfan.conf so far:
Code:
gksudo mousepad /etc/thinkfan.conf
Code:
sensor /sys/devices/virtual/hwmon/hwmon0/temp1_input
sensor /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon1/temp3_input
sensor /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon1/temp1_input
sensor /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon1/temp2_input
(0, 0, 40)
(1, 32, 55)
(2, 54, 66)
(3, 65, 76)
(4, 75, 80)
(5, 78, 85)
(6, 82, 88)
(7, 85, 32767)
Code:
sudo echo "options thinkpad_acpi fan_control=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/thinkfan.conf
Code:
sudo modprobe -rv thinkpad_acpi
Code:
sudo modprobe -v thinkpad_acpi
When the first command gives an error like this "modprobe: FATAL: Module thinkpad_acpi is in use",
just reboot your machine to use your tweaked configuration file.
If you want to start thinkfan automatically with your system,
you need to modifie /etc/default/thinkfan as root (sudo is also ok):
Just replace "no" with "yes"
sudo nano /etc/default/thinkfan
NOTE! Should "thinkfan" change the fanspeed too rapidly between the different levels, you can edit /etc/default/thinkfan as follows:
sudo nano /etc/default/thinkfan
Code:
DAEMON_ARGS="-q -b 1 -s 3"
Meaning of Options:
-b – so called "Bias" (Default: 5) is for making reaction speed better when temperatures change rapidly
-s – max time (in seconds) in between two temperature measurements (Default: 5)
Details in Manpage.
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/prec...fan.1.html
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/thinkfan.1.html
After changing this file, enable and start the service:
# Traditional:
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/thinkfan start
# Upstart:
Code:
sudo service thinkfan start
For Stoping the service (only if you need to do so):
# Traditional:
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/thinkfan stop
# Upstart:
Code:
sudo service thinkfan stop
Getting a list of Services (so you can confirm it is working):
# Traditional:
# Upstart:
Code:
service --status-all
--------------
NOTE! You can measure your current Temperature sensors with this
command in terminal to monitor your temperatures after setting everything up.
*** You need lm-sensors to be installed. I did it in the beginning of this tutorial!
NOTE 2! Everything here is done the way it's done because I have some tp-smapi starting issues on my T430.
Thus I could not use the extended method in "thinkfan.conf" like the default example in that file shows.
Default Example in "thinkfan.conf" :
Code:
# I use this on my T61p:
#sensor /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal (0, 10, 15, 2, 10, 5, 0, 3, 0, 3)
