Hi folks, after changing to systemd, I recognized, that fancontrol on my EEEPC did not work properly any more. First I noticed nothing, but after some time I noticed, the fan did not run at heavy load.
The reason for it, was the changed sensors. According to the debian wiki my working configuration looked at this: Configuration file generated by pwmconfig, changes will be lost INTERVAL=5 DEVPATH=hwmon0= hwmon1=devices/platform/eeepc DEVNAME=hwmon0=acpitz hwmon1=eeepc FCTEMPS= hwmon1/pwm1=hwmon0/temp1_input FCFANS= hwmon1/pwm1= MINTEMP= hwmon1/pwm1=55 MAXTEMP= hwmon1/pwm1=65 MINSTART= hwmon1/pwm1=50 MINSTOP= hwmon1/pwm1=50 This worked very well! After changing to systemd, this did no more work. I ran pwmconfig again (several times, just to make clear, I made no mistake) and now it looks like this: # Configuration file generated by pwmconfig, changes will be lost INTERVAL=10 DEVPATH=hwmon0= hwmon2=devices/platform/eeepc DEVNAME=hwmon0=acpitz hwmon2=eeepc FCTEMPS= hwmon2/pwm1=hwmon0/temp1_input FCFANS= hwmon2/pwm1= MINTEMP= hwmon2/pwm1=55 MAXTEMP= hwmon2/pwm1=65 MINSTART= hwmon2/pwm1=150 MINSTOP= hwmon2/pwm1=100 MINPWM=hwmon2/pwm1=0 MAXPWM=hwmon2/pwm1=255 See the difference? This configuration is working very well. Don't check the coretemp, this will never start the fan. You must check the virtual device. To do so, enter the following into console, like here: $ sensors acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +55.0°C (crit = +88.0°C) coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +35.0°C (crit = +90.0°C) eeepc-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter fan1: 3990 RPM It is not coretemp-isa-0000 the important one (as it would be logical), the Virtual device named temp1 is the correct one. Maybe this should be fixed in the wiki, before someones cpu get overheated. Just my 2 cents.
