So, the obvious place to continue this project is at Debian, but I'd like to register here that I tried to subscribe to be the mainteiner of this project at Debian but did not receive any reply. As its original developper no longer is interested in maintaining this (link below), I believe there is no problem in improving the code, keeping this GPL licensed. http://people.debian.org/~dz/i8k/README.i8kutils This project is intended to be an upgrade, removing obsolete things and actualizing the implementation. The new objective is just control the fan of Dell laptops, excluding buttons control and gui. For now, it is needed to remove the control of Dell laptop buttons, that is no longer needed. Also, it needs the removal of gui to make more objective e practical. And perhaps use a more modern language instead of tclsh scripting one.
