Package: i8kutils Version: 1.43 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
My laptop's fan acting very strangely (it does not seem to be correlated with the temperature at all…), I tried using i8kutils. Unfortunately, it has absolutely no effects, even as root. Other users got it working on the same laptop (Latitude E7440) : https://superuser.com/questions/533102/laptop-fan-is-always-on-using-linux-mint-14 Kernel module is loaded : $ lsmod | grep smm dell_smm_hwmon 16384 0 i8kctl output seems correct : $ i8kctl 1.0 A21 348DTZ1 36 -1 2 -1 6698 -1 -1 But i8kctl has no effect, either for starting : # i8kctl fan 2 2 or stopping the fan : # i8kctl fan 0 0 Of course, the system service also does not seem to have any effect. I am using the newest version of the BIOS (A21). Do not hesitate to ask if I can provide other information, or if I should report this upstream.
