Hi All,
I have a question regarding the Dell i8k utils. I have a
D600 which is running fine on 2.4.23+cpufreq patch. ACPI works
as well. But the fan does not.
I know there's the i8k package and I can load it up using
insmod i8k force=1
But I can't figure out how to start/stop the fan.
right now, I have no fan control and when running on batt, I get
miserable batt times. I'm wondering if the Fan (which is always
on) could be the problem.
Can anyone tell me the syntax to call the i8kctl util??
I can't seem to figure it out.
Cheers, .^.
