Ping. This feature would be really good to have. I am increasing the priority to 'high' since I believe it is something really important. The patch posted above seems good, although IMO it would also be good to provide an example of config file. Created attachment 600634 [details]
Copy of my /etc/sysconfig/i8k file
The patch contains a modification to the package's i8k.sysconfig file. However, for the sake of completeness, I attach a copy of my /etc/sysconfig/i8k file.
Thanks. Matthias, are you still the Fedora maintainer of this package? Hi! Thanks for pinging, and sorry for the wait. I'll have a look at this during the next few days. This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Created attachment 537426 [details] Patch to add ability to start i8kmon at boot time. Description of problem: It would be really useful if the fan control could be started at system startup, rather than having to be manually started. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): i8kutils-1.33-1.fc16.i686 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot the system and notice that the fans aren't controlled 2. 3. Actual results: i8kmon not running Expected results: It would be nice to have i8kmon running Additional info: The attached patch adds the functionality to allow i8kmon to be started by /etc/init.d/i8k. The reason for the patch to i8kmon itself is to allow pidof to find the i8kmon process (and it just seems sensible to avoid an unnecessary exec).
