I just purchased a used T430 to replace a R61 which had died to a
fan failure.
I've installed a minimal Jessie including what installer
considers standard utilities and a very basic MATE DE.
I used Synaptic to install "mate-system-tools".
An error message said "thinkfan post installation script returned
error exit status 1".
I checked for airflow - there was NONE.
Booted into Windows 7. There was warm airflow whose temperature
decreased with time.
I returned to Debian and attempted to reinstall "thinkfan.
Error message stated "attempted to reinstall E: Internal Error,
No file name for thinkfan:i386".
Two questions:
1. How may I force the fan to run continuously at maximum speed.
Noise &/or power consumption is not important.
2. What/where is this "missing file"? Any diagnostic suggestions?
TIA
