My question;
I don't think fanctl uses the config file in /etc/config.d/fanctl. I started fanctl as a deamon by 'rc-update add fanctl'. I have the config rewritten so I should see some difference. When I reboot my xbox 'xboxtemp' gives me the following:
CPU temperature: 38 °C - 100 °F
Board temperature: 43 °C - 109 °F
Fan speed: 20%
And 'rc-update show' says that the fanctl deamon should run..
fanctl | default nonetwork
Couple of minutes later, xboxtemp gives me the following:
CPU temperature: 37 °C - 98 °F
Board temperature: 43 °C - 109 °F
Fan speed: 36%
A lower cpu temp, but higher fanspeed? Don't get it. The poll interval is the same for fanspeed and temperature, isn't it?
My fanctl config
How can I get this as silently as possible to work?###
