I am asking myself, if it is even necessary to cool down the MiniPCI (the second sensor) to below 48°C. Right now "cat /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal" gives me values like these:
"temperatures: 35 47 -128 35 -128 -128 -128 -128 44 41 ... " The actual hddtemp (smart) is around 38°C. With thinkfan it'll be possible to disable (or slow down) the fan until the highest value (which is the second sensor all the time) reaches 50°C. As my CPUs and the HDD are quite cool, one could perhaps override the fan's default behaviour with thinkfan. The only question is: How hot may the MiniPCI-device get? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380303 Title: thinkpad-acpi X200 Thinkpad fan fails to spin down .
