New version of tpfancontrol out: tpfc_v063, Power Mgr bugfix

#1 Post by jayton4 » Mon Feb 25, 2013 11:30 am

Just a heads up to those who check this forum. I didn't realize that there was a new version of tpfancontrol released a few weeks ago.

http://www.staff.uni-marburg.de/~schmitzr/donate.html

There is a new setting that you can add to the .ini file to give you all of the temperature measurements for all the sensors on T410, T510, W510 models and later. You just add "UseTWR=1" to the .ini file. I have this setting working successfully on my T410, T410s, and my T420s.

The other change, and perhaps more important, is that the bug where tpfancontrol and Lenovo Power Manager running together cause the computer to randomly go to hibernation mode has supposedly been fixed! I am testing that out now. This was the main reason that I had to stop using tpfancontrol and am excited to see if it is indeed corrected. It just may be the right time to donate to the project.

That's good news, maybe I'll start to use tpfancontrol again.
