Temperature and fan controller for Thinkpads on Linux

tpfancontrol-rs's Issues

Non-hardcoded temperature files

Invoking sudo tpfancontrol errors out:

Error: sysfs error with /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_input: No such file or directory (os error 2)

I don't understand the function of these monitors, but I'm pretty sure the better way to find these paths is to do:

$ find /sys/devices -type f -name "temp*_input"

In my device, the output is:

/sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon3/temp3_input
/sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon3/temp1_input
/sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon3/temp2_input
/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/hwmon0/temp1_input
/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/hwmon0/temp2_input

Thinkfan makes you include these in your config file, for instance. Other tools find them on their own.

My device is a ThinkPad L540 running Artix Linux using runit for init.

Run on start using systemd

I have created systemd service:

[Unit]
Description=tpfancontrol-rs

[Service]
Type=oneshot
User=root
Environment="RUST_BACKTRACE=1"
ExecStart=/home/kobi/github/tpfancontrol-rs/target/release/tpfancontrol &

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

however service fails with:

Can you please help me to run the binary at boot using systemd?

fan level not linked to fan speed

First of all: Well done, great tool! However, I have problems with mapping the fan levels.
At level = 0, the fan speed is ~2000 rpm, where the fan should actually be off, and for any level higher than 0, it is constantly 2400 rpm.
Any idea why this is?
I am running Linux Mint 20.2 (with Kernel 5.13.0-21) on a Thinkpad T495s.

There is no config.toml.example

Hello!
I've got noisy problem with my X240. I tried to run your software but I can't find config.toml.example anywhere..

Setup

What I did:

$ hub clone --depth 1 Arnavion/tpfancontrol-rs && cd tpfancontrol-rs/
$ cargo build # sudo ?
$ sudo mkdir /etc/tpfancontrol
$ sudo cp config.toml.example /etc/tpfancontrol/config.toml
$ cargo run # ran with error
$ sudo cargo run # ran with error as well

error:

Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.03s
     Running `target/debug/tpfancontrol`
Error: sysfs error with /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_input: No such file or directory (os error 2)

Do I need to modify something in the conf file other than thresholds?

I'm not familiar with Rust; hopefully, I'm not doing something obviously wrong.

If I wanted to start tpfancontrol-rs on boot or login, should I run cargo run in the directory or there is a binary I'm missing? (could not find anything in ~/.cargo/bin)
