Fan Control Daemon for MacbookPro. #Fan speed #Fan control #Macbook #Fan #Speed #Control
Macbook Fan Control Daemon is a daemon that regulates the temperature of your MacbookPro by controlling the fan speed.
If you've installed ubuntu/debian on your macbook and the fans are not turning on, causing the laptop to get excessively hot during use.
First make sure you've installed applesmc-dkms from this repository https://launchpad.net/~mactel-support/+archive/ppa If your fans still are not coming on after installing this and rebooting, then you need this app.
Add the PPA (package archive) to your software sources. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hughescih/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mbfancontrol
I need your help to complete all the model info for various mac computers. If this app works or doesn't work, let us know either way. To make it work, I need to know the number of fans your unit has, the specific model number found by the command:
sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
and the input sensor that reads cpu temperature. Find this by installing sensors-applet:
sudo apt-get install sensors-applet
Then add this applet to your panel, and figure out which sensor number is acting as CPU temperature (the one that goes up when you open a CPU-intensive application, e.g. flash player or system monitor).
So far all models with one fan and the cpu temperature reading on input #5.
