Any progress on fan control program for our Txx?

#1 Post by BoostedA4 » Sun Oct 02, 2005 9:07 am

I know there was a forum member(s) who said they would attempt to make a program to control our fans... Anyone know if any progress is being made on this?

To help them: Steal code from the linux kernel module called "ibm_acpi". This module can already do what we want but not in Windows.

shouldn't NHC (Notebook Hardware Control, formerly known as CHC) do the job already?

You are so wrong ... It supports your T41 but it does NOT support T43 ...

No it doesn't, the author looks for the acpi info as well, darn IBM/Lenovo makes a big secret out of it...
