Hi FALKER, everyone, The recent update broke my "simple" config. I get a segfault using this configuration now, everything was perfect before: -- (0, 0, 54) (1, 50, 58) (2, 54, 62) (3, 58, 66) (4, 62, 70) (5, 66, 74) (6, 70, 78) (7, 67, 32767) -- I tried to create a new "complex" configuration and get an error saying that I need 9 temps but only got 8, I removed the sensor entry related with the missing one and the config was accepted: -- root@tp ~ # cat /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal temperatures: 37 40 30 -128 50 -128 29 -128 40 44 31 -128 -128 -128 -128 -128 -- The problems is that I'm not able to get the previous behaviour with the complex config, can someone try to help me adapting the previous simple config to the new complex one? Thanks.

Good idea, done.

What do you think about to compile the package with the new option to read aout the s.m.a.r.t-temperatures directly? The NEWS tells: 1) S.M.A.R.T via libatasmart ---------------------------- Thinkfan can now read temperatures directly from hard disks via libatasmart. To enable it, you need to compile with -DUSE_ATASMART.

Done, thx for the hint @cap_sensitive.

Hi, I think the thinkpad_acpi.conf should better be placed under /usr/lib/modprobe.d

I've uploaded a new version with the following changes: - Remove initscripts support - Provide a install file with a note regarding creating a thinkfan.conf - Install thinkpad_acpi.conf in /etc/modprobe.d NOTE: You might get a conflict for '/etc/modprobe.d/thinkpad_acpi.conf'. Please remove the file before installing/uprading. The content of the installed config file is: options thinkpad_acpi fan_control=1

Hi, thx for your comments. [1] is fine, I'll include that later. [2] is a bit dangerous, as sensor data/thermal control my differ for several devices. In my oppinion, it may be sufficient to show a note when installing the package. [new version], yes I'm aware of it, but it is not yet marked as stable.

What do you think about including following two files with the package? [1] /etc/modprobe.d/thinkpad_acpi.conf options thinkpad_acpi fan_control=1 https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Lenovo_ThinkPad_T420#Fans [2] And the simple config file included in examples folder thinkfan.conf.simple as /etc/thinkfan.conf Fedora includes both of these files. Also version 0.9 beta2 is available.
