 |
|
I ran sensors-detect and now my fan is no longer working.
The man pages (which I did not read before hand) does warn about this, but does not say how to reverse the damage.
Is it possible to fix this or did I just permanently break my pc?
Btw. I used lm_sensors-3.1.1 |

I would bet it just turned your fan off.
I assume rebooting doesn't help?
Maybe unmerge lm_sensors.

Thanks, but already tried those.
It seems to also be misreading remaining battery life now. |

| Sounds like your SuperIO chip got borked. Try asking in #linux-sensors on Freenode |
