Package: fancontrol Version: 1:3.1.2-2 Severity: normal Hi,
my AMD 64 X2 has 4 internal temperature sensors, 2 per core. The temperatures can differ quite a bit, if only one core is under load. So for reliable fan control it would be necessary, that the CPU fan is controlled based on all 4 temperatures, where the highest determines the fan speed. Fancontrol, however, only allows one to map one temperature to a fan. I didn't make this a mere wishlist bug, because watching only one temperature might potentially be harmful to your CPU.
