[Bug 1713173] Re: CPU fan speed not controlled by thermald

The PWM control has a range of 0-255 or 1-255 with 0 being off for the fan. ** Description changed: - The asus I have has only one fan for the CPU and GPU, and a shared - heatsink. When I am fully utilizing the GPU and CPU, the fan runs at - 4000 rpm max. I see the following messages in dmesg: + The asus I have has only one fan for the CPU (4710HQ) and GPU, and a + shared heatsink.

They happen on every CPU*. When I control the fan manually using: echo 255 > /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/pwm1 It gets louder than when it is running at 4000rpm, and I don't see MCEs anymore in dmesg.
