Hi! I have a Thinkpad X200 where the fan controlling does not seem to be working as intended. It is constantly spinning at 3300-3400 RPM according to 'sysctl hw.sensors.acpithinkpad0.fan0', even under heavy load (100% usage on both cores) and no matter if the cpu temperature is 35 or 55 degrees (Celsius).
When I tried disabling acpi the fan seemed to be spinning up and down depending on the load. I am running the latest snapshot as of around 10:00 this morning (CEST) but this seems to have existed since I got the computer around two weeks ago. I am running apmd with the -C flag, although I noticed it probably doesn't matter as of a few days back. My dmesg is as follows: OpenBSD 5.6-current (GENERIC.MP) #448: Sun Oct 19 10:25:04 MDT 2014 dera...@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP real mem = 8463781888 (8071MB) avail mem = 8229769216 (7848MB) mpath0 at root scsibus0 at mpath0: 256 targets mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.4 @ 0xe0010 (68 entries) bios0: vendor LENOVO version "6DET72WW (3.22 )" date 10/25/2012 bios0: LENOVO 7458AF9 acpi0 at bios0: rev 2 acpi0: sleep states S0 S3 S4 S5 acpi0: tables DSDT FACP SSDT ECDT APIC MCFG HPET SLIC BOOT ASF!
