Package: thinkfan Version: 0.5.0.1-1 Severity: wishlist Various Thinkpad models are subject to the pulsating fan bug(1) Every few seconds the embedded controller firmware monitors the fan and adjusts the speed of the fan, resulting in a pulsating noise.
Before thinkfan I used tp-fancontrol which includes a workaround for the pulsating fan problem(2). Is it possible to apply the same sort of hack in thinkfan?
