This shows the problem well. What I found though is that i8k alone does not control the fan. It only offers an interface to it. It is i8kutils that allows to do that. Otherwise it seems to me the BIOS is in charge of controlling the fan. Testing the here with an 1535 it looks like it normally stays cool even without controlling the fan and changing the speeds will get adapted by the bios. But you could try whether i8kfan works for you.
