Porteus

What is the preferred way to run fan control with Porteus these days? Lm-sensors etc?

The X2L is an X86-64 SBC with a J4125 Celeron and RPI 4020 gpio chip. Reviews elsewhere. I dig it.

I'm running the 4gb model with no storage other than Porteus on a usb-3 stick, and using the Radxa heatsink / fan combo. I prefer to run fanless, and have tweaked the fan stop / start temps in the bios, so that the fan only comes on when I'm watching videos or heavy graphics stuff, so I'm kinda' hybrid at this point.

Whilst I can change these settings in the bios, I'd like to have control within Porteus itself so I can really fine tune it easily. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to use, ie keeping things the porteus-way so to speak?

Update: Bios control is the way to go - this is not something one does "on the fly". Especially after looking into "fancontrol". I think I was creating a problem for myself.

A cr-1220 rtc/bios battery will be installed.

Temp values changed in bios - for my environment - suffices for now in automatic mode. Other values like PWM were left alone.:
Fan stop: 50
Fan start: 60
Fan full speed: 70

Keeping an eye on core temps in a terminal tab simply of:
In another tab, making sure cpu is still scaling properly:
And in another tab, using TOP and watching all cores come up with toggling the numerical 1 key.
For eye-candy, I toggle "t" and "m" for gradiated or blocky bar indication. Run minimized and then maximized over the top of running applications to take a sneak peak through the tabs once in awhile.

I think Porteus taught me to keep things simple and modularized in the work flow!
