Public bug reported: Binary package hint: i8kutils
i8k is a collection of utilities to control Dell Inspiron and Latitude laptops. It includes programs to turn the fan on and off, to read fan status, CPU temperature, BIOS version and to handle the volume buttons and Fn-keys. The package includes also a small Tk applet, designed to be swallowed in the gnome panel, which monitors the CPU temperature and controls automatically the fans accordingly to user defined thresholds. When running i8kmon I get 'can't open /proc/i8k: No such file or directory' When running i8kfan I get the same message. The logfile created by i8kmon is attached. output of cat /etc/lsb-release: DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=7.10 DISTRIB_CODENAME=gutsy DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 7.10" output of $sudo i8kfan -v i8kctl v1.5 10/11/2001 Synaptic tells me that I have installed version 1.27. When I ran the commands I was expected to get some information about my fan and other stuff, instead I get the bug report. ** Affects: i8kutils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- i8kutils does not create /proc/i8k https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/194335 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
