I experienced this bug today on 16.04. I think I solved it by specifying tp_fan manually:
tp_fan /proc/acpi/ibm/fan Then it started working. Maybe a coincidence though. It did work before. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1494546 Title: Thinkfan will occasionally send garbage to fan control (setfan_ibm: Error writing to /proc/acpi/ibm/fan) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thinkfan/+bug/1494546/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
