If your system uses systemd you can edit /lib/systemd/system/fancontrol.service and add under [Service], Restart=always
It's a better workaround than using pm-utils For example [Unit] Description=fan speed regulator # Run pwmconfig to create this file. ConditionPathExists=/etc/fancontrol After=lm-sensors.service Documentation=man:fancontrol(8) man:pwmconfig(8) [Service] ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/fancontrol --check ExecStart=/usr/sbin/fancontrol PIDFile=/var/run/fancontrol.pid Restart=always [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ** Also affects: lm-sensors (Debian) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/489596 Title: Fancontrol ignores pwmconfig settings after suspend to ram/disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lm-sensors-3/+bug/489596/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
