@smldis: not sure if this is a good solution, but I switched to using /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone*/temp after having similar issues (thinkfan failing to read /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/...)

I have the problem with thinkfan, that after resuming from suspend, thinkfan quits because a sensor has vanished. The log says: A sensor has vanished! Exiting since there's no safe way of handling this. If I restart the thinkfan systemd service, it works properly again. Any suggestions how to solve this?

I opened a bug report here if someone wanna help: https://sourceforge.net/p/thinkfan/thinkfan-bugs/17/

Ok, I do Not want To waste our time on tricks, I just published my solution for other people here. Thanks for your effort.

@smldis, thx for your report, I'll try thinkpad_hwmon asap and try to find a solution.

I don't use lm-sensors. My driver interface is thinkpad_hwmon. Thank you

notizblock commented on 2014-10-07 19:34 (UTC)

@smldis have you configured lm-sensors? Does it start properly, if you start it manually?

smldis commented on 2014-10-07 08:11 (UTC)

Hi, Not loading at start here, Also lm-sensors fails to load with this .service My working setup on a thinkpad t500 is: udev rule: 98-thinkfan.rules SUBSYSTEM=="platform", KERNEL=="thinkpad_hwmon", TAG+="systemd" thinkfan.service: [Unit] Description=Thinkfan Daemon - simple and lightweight fan control program [Service] Type=forking ExecStart=/usr/bin/thinkfan PIDFile=/var/run/thinkfan.pid ExecReload=/usr/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID [Install] #WantedBy=multi-user.target WantedBy=sys-devices-platform-thinkpad_hwmon.device

Hi @notizblock, It works fine now. Thanks!

Sorry for being so unresponsive lately, I uploaded a new version with the following changes: - Fix installation of README/NEWS (thx @smldis) - Update thinkfan.service to be closer to upstream (thx @smldis) - Include optional dependency to lm_sensors (thx @zaferot) I think an optional dependency is the best solution here, since user may decide to load the required modules manually. @zaferot, @smldis please test, if this version fixes your problems. I was not able to reproduce them.
