Hi community!
I’m having trouble trying to get some information about the fans of my laptop, they start working only above 80ºC (been doing some gaming but now I dont think I can until I fix this) and I would like to change this so they start earlier, maybe around 60 degrees, my laptop is prone to overheating and I’m trying to safeguard it from itself…
I’ve searched around how to do this, installed lm_sensors and ran sudo sensors-detect, I typed yes to every time… but to an specific nvidia adapter, fun-fact it freezes when I responded yes to NVIDIA GPU I2C adapter (i2c-0) adapter, the only adapter that returned success is Intel digital thermal sensor
* Chip `Intel digital thermal sensor' (confidence: 9)
but when I run sensors there is no fan speed along the ISA adapter, as I have seen is the normal thing to happen…
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Package id 0: +46.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 0: +46.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1: +43.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 2: +45.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 3: +43.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 4: +45.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 5: +42.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
BAT0-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
in0: 12.88 V
Already read multiple posts from people who had their fanservice not working but I couldnt find any that showed a similar behavior.
When I run systemctl status fancontrol this is what I get:
○ fancontrol.service - Start fan control, if configured
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/fancontrol.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
I’m kinda of a newbie around (first post) so I dont know what else should I add… i can just think of inxi -Fxxz (next formated text), I’d be more than thankful if I can get some hint on how to enable the fan control service and get to change the way it works. greetings!
