My bad, sorry! Should be fixed now.

This is the stable version of the package. New fixes are only present in git as I haven't made a new release yet- sorry!

Sorry for the question, but I can't get "fanflicker prevention" working as described on github. Switch '-r' or '--fanflicker' gives me "UnrecognizedOption".

@Cavsfan systemd is not suitable for starting a service that needs X (nvidia-settings needs X to work properly). If you're not using headless system, you could use the DE's startup settings. For headless system, you might consider starting X, setting the DISPLAY environment, and then start nvfancontrol.

@Foucault, no I did not but, now I have and along with a conf file it's working!

I just could not get the systemd unit to startup at boot.

I could start it, enable it but, it still did not start when I booted up.

So, I just added it to Xfce Applications > Settings > Session and Startup and it's working fantastic!

Cheers and thank you! :-)

Have you enabled Coolbits ?

I got it, just didn't save it as ~/.config/systemd/user/nvfancontrol.service

Then it started just fine but, I am getting this error:

Jul 04 17:47:15 ArchLinux nvfancontrol[32423]: ERROR - Could not update fan speed: XNVCtrl QueryAttr(COOLER_MANUAL_CONTROL) failed; error 0

I probably do not have a driver component installed?

Add it to your ~/.config/systemd/user and check if it's working with

systemctl --user start nvfancontrol

and

systemctl --user status nvfancontrol

If the service is running properly you can permanently enable it upon login with

systemctl --user enable nvfancontrol
