Hello, Efraim Flashner! I want your support cause my question is not figuring out from the web. For typing my config for 'thinkfan' need to write thinkfan.conf, and there, I think, it is necessary to define temperature control kernel module. After running `sensors-detect` (from 'lmsensors' package) this config file appeared:
# cat /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors # Generated by sensors-detect on Thu Jul 4 12:53:51 2019 # This file is sourced by /etc/init.d/lm_sensors and defines the modules to # be loaded/unloaded. # # The format of this file is a shell script that simply defines variables: # HWMON_MODULES for hardware monitoring driver modules, and optionally # BUS_MODULES for any required bus driver module (for example for I2C or SPI). HWMON_MODULES="coretemp" As I understood 'coretemp' is that module I can use in thinkfan.conf. I see `sensors` is using coretemp-isa-0000 # sensors soc_dts0-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +42.0°C acpitz-acpi-0 Adapter: ACPI interface temp1: +60.0°C (crit = +90.0°C) soc_dts1-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +42.0°C coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +46.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Core 1: +46.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Core 2: +52.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Core 3: +52.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Ok. But I need to use 'coretemp' file from /proc as in example here [1]. But I do not know where is it: # find /proc -name 'corete*' # Please, can you help me?
