good catch, fixed.

Uh, this was my build script messing things up if a package has a file that is named exactly as the package is. Fixed now, it was not your fault. However I still get a warning: ==> WARNING: backup entry file not in package : etc/thinkfan.conf You should remove the backup array if you do no longer ship the config file.

Have you used the Tarball or just the PKGBUILD?

I can not build this package: ==> ERROR: thinkfan was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

Thank you notizblock and foalsrock! @donniezazen you can find example config files from the author's source tarball: http://sourceforge.net/projects/thinkfan/files/thinkfan-0.8_alpha2.tar.gz/download For those with Thinkpad T420, use the coretemp kernel module to access the CPU temp sensors. The following contains non-Arch advice but can be adapted: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11277718&postcount=17 http://www.fuduntu.org/wiki/index.php?title=Thinkpad_T420_and_Fuduntu http://www.jakubkotowski.com/2011/06/thinkpad-t420-thinkfan-settings.html

How are you guys setting up new 0.8 thinkfan, since no thinkfan.conf is included?

notizblock commented on 2012-04-11 17:41 (UTC)

looks good to me. Thx @foalsrock

Hi, As of 0.8 alpha, thinkfan does not work on laptops which return temp with a newline char (as is the case for with X220, for example). There's a solution in the form of a patch here https://gist.github.com/2355667 Here's a PKGBUILD with the included patch http://pastebin.com/YjKqg5cp Thanks

Thanks!

I updated the package. The default config files are gone in this release. So, you have to create your own /etc/thinkfan.conf before you can start the daemon. See the README in /usr/share/doc/thinkfan/README for more information.
