[gentoo-user] How to read fan speed of my graphics card?
Hi, to supervise the speed of the two fans of my Nvidia GTX 560 Ti (made by MSI) graphics card I need a way to read it in userland. I tried lm_sensors for this but without any success -- but I have to admit of not haveing much knowledge about these things, though. That is the reason for asking for help here. How can I accomplish this? With what I can experiment for this purpose? Thank you very much in advance for any help or hint! Have a nice weekend! Best regards, mcc
