Anybody managed to control fan-speeds and such with CoreCell? The Cool'n'Quiet option keeps the cpufan at a bit too high rpm's... Noisy little bastard this standard a64 cooler :D

all you need is the fancontrol script from lm-sensors (you don't need to install the entire package)

and a little init scipt like:

Quote:

#!/sbin/runscript

start() {
ebegin "Starting fancontrol"
start-stop-daemon --start --background --pidfile /var/run/fancontrol.pid --exec /usr/sbin/fancontrol
eend ${?} "Failed to start fancontrol"
}

stop() {
ebegin "Stopping fancontrol"
start-stop-daemon --stop --pidfile /var/run/fancontrol.pid
eend ${?} "Failed to stop fancontrol"
}


from an old post somewhere
