Tool to Control Fan - fanctl

[tuxd3v]

Too Cool!  Thx  I had figured out how to to control the fan and read the temps but was lamenting having to write some code using sysfs

Does it log to say syslogs?  So we can know when it has taken action

Can you add a little test code and maybe run that with a --test option.

When I do start it is does run the fan momentarily which I assume you wrote into the code as a check.

I'd just like some way to know if it's all working ok short of pointing a hairdryer to my chip.

Hello dkebler,

thanks, 
You can see the logs, by specifying the unit you want( fanctl ) to journalctl:

Code:

journalctl -u fanctl

You mean an option "--test",
It can be done, for example to dump information about CPU/GPU temps, and the state of fanctl, and pwm issued.

I will put it in the TODO list
