I am running up-to-date debian sid amd64 and have found that fancontol sometimes fails to start after a reboot reporting that:
Device path of hwmon0 has changed Device name of hwmon0 has changed Configuration appears to be outdated, please run pwmconfig again On inspecting /etc/fancontrol it would appear that the device name has changed between reboots. (Yesterdays /etc/fancontrol after running pwnconfig) # Configuration file generated by pwmconfig, changes will be lost INTERVAL=10 DEVPATH=hwmon0=devices/platform/nct6775.656 DEVNAME=hwmon0=nct6776 FCTEMPS=hwmon0/pwm2=hwmon0/temp2_input FCFANS= hwmon0/pwm2=hwmon0/fan2_input MINTEMP=hwmon0/pwm2=20 MAXTEMP=hwmon0/pwm2=60 MINSTART=hwmon0/pwm2=150 MINSTOP=hwmon0/pwm2=0 (Todays /etc/fancontrol after running pwnconfig) # Configuration file generated by pwmconfig, changes will be lost INTERVAL=10 DEVPATH=hwmon2=devices/platform/nct6775.656 DEVNAME=hwmon2=nct6776 FCTEMPS=hwmon2/pwm2=hwmon2/temp2_input FCFANS= hwmon2/pwm2=hwmon2/fan2_input MINTEMP=hwmon2/pwm2=20 MAXTEMP=hwmon2/pwm2=60 MINSTART=hwmon2/pwm2=150 So the device seems to have changed from hwmon0 to hwmon2 between successive boots. An idea what I should do to make the device name persistent? Thanks Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
