And I then ran sudo update-grub and...

Yeah I looked through all those settings before making this post and they are all set correctly. The selected Hardware Device is RS880 Audio Device [Radeon HD 4200] and the Output Device is set to...

For whatever reason the fan on my HP dv6-6183nr laptop runs almost constantly at high speeds even when the laptop is not very hot. When the laptop does cool down, the fan sometimes lowers its RPM,...

Do you think modifying it like this will work for what I'm trying to do? Also, do you have a tutorial on how I can go about doing it?

I dual boot with Windows 7 now and the fan only runs when needed and turns off when it's not needed. Because the fan is able to work correctly in Windows, I'm sure there must be some way to get it to...

It actually seems to be working now, however, I would like to adjust the temperature points at which it turns on and off. Can anyone help me getting fancontrol working properly?

In a way. It is no longer on all the time like it used to be, however it still turns on randomly without stopping until I do something like put the computer to sleep for a while. I tried adding the ...

The fan hasn't been running all the time anymore, but it seems to turn on and off randomly. I actually just saw this suggestion in another thread and am trying it out now. I'll let you know how it...
