Linux fan control app7/3/2023 I tried to follow the steps described here: How to control fan speed?, so basically set up lm-sensors, then set up fancontrol with the help of pwmconfig But pwmconfig answers: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed Even after adding the module applesmc to /etc/modules and rebooting, no chance. This is annoying because I think with a fix speed set to 2000 RPM for example, the temp would stabilise at an acceptable temperature, hopefully below 90☌, while the noise would still be acceptable. This do lower the temp of these 2 sensors, until aournd 80☌, but this is not cool enough to reduce the fan speed. This fan gradually accelerate until its max, 3600 RPM, which makes the imac very loud. Here is a screenshot of psensor: psensor screenshotīasically, 2 sensors, TD0D and temp1 see an increase in temperature until reaching 105☌, which triggers the increase of the CPU fan speed. While it runs smoothly for all I need to do, 20 minutes after starting the CPU fan starts to get super loud. I switched an old Imac (2008) to Lubuntu.
