These are a bunch of useful programs if you own a thinkpad.
| program | description |
|---|---|
| lm_sensors | utility for hardware monitoring and SMBus access |
| thinkfan | utility to control fanspeeds |
After installing both lm_sensors and thinkfan activate thinkpad_acpi.
sudo modprobe thinkpad_acpi
Then copy and configure the config file.
sudo cp /usr/share/doc/thinkfan/examples/thinkfan.conf.simple /etc/thinkfan.conf
Enable it.
systemctl enable thinkfan
After that check and if correct enable the thinkfan service.
sudo thinkfan -n
systemctl enable thinkfan.service
