 |
|
Thinkfan stopped working on my travel laptop a t450s with this version.
| Code: | [ebuild R ] app-laptop/thinkfan-1.0.2::gentoo USE="yaml -atasmart -nvidia" 0 KiB
|
when i start it, it spits out this.
| Code: | | ERROR: /etc/thinkfan.conf Invalid entryInvalid entry. |
using this config.
| Code: |
tp_fan /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
hwmon /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
(0, 0, 45)
(1, 38, 50)
(2, 40, 51)
(3, 42, 53)
(4, 46, 55)
(5, 49, 56)
(7, 53, 32767)
|
so i do a bit of a search and think, okay they changed the syntax, so lets rewrite it.
| Code: |
fans:
- tpacpi: /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
sensors:
- hwmon: /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
levels:
- [0, 0, 45]
- [1, 38, 50]
- [2, 40, 51]
- [3, 42, 53]
- [4, 46, 55]
- [5, 49, 56]
- [7, 53, 32767]
|
And it doesn't like that either....
| Code: |
* Starting thinkfan ...
ERROR: /etc/thinkfan.conf:41: Invalid syntax:
fans:
^
* start-stop-daemon: failed to start `/usr/sbin/thinkfan'
* Failed to start thinkfan [ !! ]
* ERROR: thinkfan failed to start
|
what's going on here??

I've had the same issue. I don't what happened.. But I compiled thinkfan again, made sure there wasn't any typo in the conf, rebooted and now it works.. Very strange though.
Here is my config :
| Code: | tp_fan /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
tp_thermal /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal (0, 10, 15, 2, 10, 5, 0, 3, 0, 3)
(0, 0, 55)
(1, 48, 60)
(2, 50, 61)
(3, 52, 63)
(4, 56, 65)
(5, 59, 66)
(7, 63, 32767) |
By the way, I'm not aware of any new syntax. The above is working. |

I'll try that in a bit once it's done updating, got the new syntax from what appears to be the github of it..

| At my T440s I do no longer need that extra package, the kernel itself is fine. |
