[ltp] RE: Fan speed increased on my T400s

[Petar Milin]

Hello!
Bottom line, I got two advices how to control and regulate fan speed in 
Debian testing i386, on my T400s:
(1) thinkfan:
     - create a file called /etc/modprobe.d/thinkpad_acpi.conf with its 
contents being "options thinkpad_acpi fan_control=1"
     - install thinkfan from apt-get, aptitude, or synaptic
     - edit /etc/default/thinkfan so that the 5th line reads: START=yes
     - reboot

(2) ThinkPad Fan Control:
     - install tpfand and tpfan-admin from source following instructions 
at http://hurl.no/nn0
     (I am not sure about Ubuntu prebuilt packages, and if they would 
work properly on Debian testing!)

My question still if which of the two would be better, safety wise?

Best,
PM
