I tried a couple things that didn't work. I'm running Precise.
I downloaded the tarball of the latest version of lm_sensors - http://dl.lm-sensors.org/lm-sensors/releases/lm_sensors-3.3.5.tar.bz2 and ran pwmconfig directly from there (sudo bash prog/pwm/pwmconfig). No same results. Then I downloaded lm-sensors from trusty: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/lm-sensors/download Installing it via dpkg -i gave me an error about a dependency for the uninstalled package init-system-helpers. So I forced it (which I do not recommend): dpkg --force-depends -i lm-sensors_3.3.4-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb That didn't work either. I'm pretty curious what's broken here. I'm starting to suspect that there's some other program the pwmconfig script uses that's somehow broken or missing in a way that's not being detected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lm-sensors in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/485899 Title: pwmconfig generates a blank values /etc/fancontrol To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lm-sensors/+bug/485899/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
