NAME fand is an OpenBSD deamon to control fan speed depends on CPU temperature INSTALLATION Currently fand works only with Lenovo/IBM Thinkpad laptops and requires custom kernel to be run. Kernel must be patched with hw.fanlevel.patch patch included into the current distribution. Steps to install and setup fand. 1. Apply hw.fanlevel.patch, compile and run custom kernel. 2. Make sure hw.fanlevel works as expected. # sysctl hw.fanlevel hw.fanlevel=128 # sysctl hw.fanlevel=3 hw.fanlevel: 128 -> 3 # sysctl hw.fanlevel hw.fanlevel=3 Play with 0-8 and 128 (automatic control) values to make sure everything works as expected. It is expected to be a few seconds delay between sysctl value set and actual fan speed change. 3. Install fand port using https://github.com/vchimishuk/openbsd-ports/tree/master/sysutils/fand See fand(1) for more details. 4. Potentially it can be dengerous and lead to hardware damage. However, modern hardware should have embeded overheat protection. AUTHORS Viacheslav Chimishuk <[email protected]> COPYING This programm is released under 2-clause BSD license. See LICENSE file.
