Yesterday No, it was running full speed no matter what I was or was not doing. Today started off fine i put under a load and the fans kicked on, now they are not stopping.
Hi
Can you post the output from (if there is any);
ls /proc/acpi/fan
Also is cool and quiet on in your BIOS? If it is can you disable it.
Not to sure if i have cool and quiet on in my bios, I’d have to boot up into the bios and check? Where would it be in there?
anthony@linux-75uw:~> ls /proc/acpi/fan
FAN1
Hi
What model is your laptop, the model number on the label.
So what is the output from;
cat /proc/acpi/fan/FAN1
ls -la /pro/proc/acpi/fan/FAN1
Hi
Also from;
uname -a
zypper se omnibook
The model is psl0u-02601p
The first code did nothing, said there was no file or directory
and the second code output is
linux-75uw:/home/anthony # zypper se omnibook

Hi
There should be output from the uname -a command?
hi sorry about that,

Hi
OK, can you edit out the grub menu entry as a test and then install the following;
sudo zypper in omnibook-kmp-desktop
then reboot.
Can you also confirm the model version of your satellite, Toshiba Satellite® Laptop Computers
edit out the grub menu? im sorry i dont understand. Toshiba Satellite Laptop Model: L305D-S5893 (Best Buy) is my laptop. No longer available on the toshiba site.
Hi
I meant edit out the acpi_enforce_resources=lax entry we added.

Hi
So the temperatures are up again…
OK, try;
ls -la /proc/acpi/fan/FAN1
Then cat the output from the entries in the FAN1 directory.

Yea uhh, don’t know what “cat” is
The temps are up again yes, and fan speed stuck on slow speed.
Hi
It would be;
cat /proc/acpi/fan/FAN1/state
Then re add the acpi_enforce_resources=lax and run the above command after you reboot and post both the outputs.
Same output for both before and after i edit grub.
anthony@linux-75uw:~> cat /proc/acpi/fan/FAN1/state

Hi
OK, there are options to set on the omnibook module. Don’t worry about the previous post for the moment. So if you have added the option, remove it and reboot.
Can you confirm the omnibook is loaded?
lsmod |grep omni
If there is no output, then we need to add (manually for the moment)
sudo /sbin/modprobe omnibook fan_policy=1 fan=1
This is all i’m getting…
anthony@linux-75uw:~> lsmod |grep omni
anthony@linux-75uw:~> sudo /sbin/modprobe omnibook fan_policy=1 fan=1
