Thanks for reply.
First, I've never tried macfanctl so don't have to uninstall anything, right?
Actually, restarting is not really restarting. I just run smcfancontrol directly like below:
Code:
$ sudo /usr/local/sbin/smcfancontrol
cat: /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state: No such file or directory
cat: /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/ADP1/state: No such file or directory
Then the sensors command shows decresed fan speed around 2000 RPM (noisy speed is around 4000 RPM according to sensors command)
Code:
$ sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0: +24.0°C (high = +89.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
coretemp-isa-0002
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 2: +27.0°C (high = +89.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
applesmc-isa-0300
Adapter: ISA adapter
ODD : 4001 RPM (min = 4000 RPM)
HDD : 4001 RPM (min = 4000 RPM)
CPU : 4001 RPM (min = 4000 RPM)
...
Code:
$ sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0: +22.0°C (high = +89.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
coretemp-isa-0002
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 2: +25.0°C (high = +89.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
applesmc-isa-0300
Adapter: ISA adapter
ODD : 2003 RPM (min = 4000 RPM)
HDD : 1996 RPM (min = 4000 RPM)
CPU : 1997 RPM (min = 4000 RPM)
...
BTW, I also checked the fan speed on Mac OS X by smcFanControl, and it shows around 1000 RPM as default. So iMac's fanMinSpeed can be 1000, right?
check in /usr/local/sbin/smcFanControl that these options are true
sensorsUsed = 2
manFanControl = true
useCoretemp = true
Yes, those parameters are same as you mentioned. I haven't changed the default settings, actually.
Additionally, I have a question. Do I really have to install applesmc-dkms_0.17.4-natty-mactel1~test1_all.deb.gz? Because I checked smcfancontrol behaviour w/ or w/o it, and there seemed to be no difference.
