![]() ![]() ![]() Step 2: The main home screen of the software is divided into two sections: Controls and Speeds. To run the tool, open the FanControl.exe file. Unzip the package and store all the files in a folder. Step 1: Download Fan Control from the official website, or its Github repository. Thus, any hardware compatibility issue completely depends on LibreHardwareMonitor and NvAPIWrapper. Instead, they have managed to repurpose a bunch of existing hardware libraries and have simply added a user interface on top. According to the developers, the drivers and the backend portion of the tool have not been created from scratch.

But the catch is that without dell-smm-hwmon I get no pwm control device for fan so, cannot read or change fan speed. I narrowed it down to dell-smm-hwmon kernel module and after blacklisting, polling sensors (with sensors or xsensors) works normally. ![]() The same issue seems to be with i8kutils - when run, polling/writing hwmon pwm and input from speed makes system unworkable. I discovered this hard way when tried to run xsensors and barely could shut it down as there is no other activity during this pauses and xsensors polls sensors quite often. It seems that there is some problem as whenever any programm was reading/writing pwm/speed laptop hangs for 1-5 seconds. When used pwmconfig controls fan speed via hwmon device and reads/writes speed. I tried fancontrol/pwmconfig and i8kutils. I had no issues with wmi and function keys, bluetooth and wireless, graphics.īut one thing that I wanted to tweak was fan speed. During last week I have tried to install Xubuntu 14.04 LTS and Ubuntu Mate 15.04 on my Dell Studio 1537. ![]()
