FAA ASUS eee 1000H - fan control

[martyj]

Hello, first of all, excuse my bad English (It's not my native language). Jestli je tu nějaký čech, může poradit.

I have problem with my eee PC. In IDLE CPU temperature is about 50 °C but if i run Flash for example, it attacks 70 - 75° C which is very much I think. My fan doesn't work at all (O RPM). So my question : is there a way to power on fan and control its RPM ?

Thanks, Marty

Díky.

But I don't have these folders
/etc/modules-load.d/
/etc/conf.d/

Should I create them ?

If I run
sensors :

Code: Select all

acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +58.0°C  (crit = +85.0°C)

eeepc-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
fan1:           0 RPM

lsmod :

Code: Select all

Where can I get the modules for fancontrol ? I don't understand this manual.

p.s. Kernel - 3.17.14

Probably you can not manage this:

Code: Select all

Sorry, no sensors were detected.
This is relatively common on laptops, where thermal management is
handled by ACPI rather than the OS.

[martyj]

It works with other distros f.e. puppy linux, but in this distro I have many problems with wifi, touchpad etc.
Porteus is fine. This fan issue is my only problem. There must be a way to do something to enable it.

[tome]

Too hard now for me. Maybe Fanthom could help. I will add FAA to the topic.

[martyj]

Nevermind. Thanks anyway.

Zdravím do Polska.

If you are still interested, I think you have Porteus on Slackware and not Nemesis on Archlinux? I am no longer booting in Porteus but Nemesis but I am not asking you to try it yet.

then as root install the sensors package

Code: Select all

usm -s lm_sensors

sensors-detect

to give you an idea of what sensors-detect will show please read
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... -a-720755/

Yes its not the release as ours but gives you the idea.

You should be booting up with a changes= cheatcode to save the file I hope will be called
/etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors

If unsure what to do, do what that poster did please..........post the output to your sensors-detect.

If a certain hardware kernel module is not loading ....sensors-detect tells you with some confidence which ones to load.
You may have one or lots to load.

I can show you an easy way to have that automatic, but I don't know which modules you need until you tell us.

Good Luck
