A service for controlling the fans on Clevo laptops. Fan speed can be set manually to a specific fan duty percentage value or to automatic mode which provides a "silent" profile to override the machine's default fan curve.
The following dependencies must be installed on the machine using the package manager available for your Linux distribution.
- GCC
- CMake
- AppIndicator3 or Ayatana AppIndicator3
- GTK+3
On Debian/Ubuntu systems that ship Ayatana AppIndicator, install:
sudo apt install build-essential cmake pkg-config libgtk-3-dev libayatana-appindicator3-devOn systems that still ship the legacy AppIndicator package, install the
corresponding libappindicator3-dev package instead.
To install the service, run the following from a directory where you are comfortable having temporary build files generated.
By default the service will be installed to /usr/local/bin and the
.desktop file for autostart to ~/.config/autostart.
cmake -DUSER=<user> -DGROUP=<user group> -DHOME=<home directory path> <path/to/clevo-fan-control>
cmake --build .
sudo cmake --install .Use the install_manifest.txt generated when installing to remove the
files.
sudo xargs rm < install_manifest.txt/usr/local/bin/clevo-fan-control
/usr/local/bin/clevo-fan-control <0-100>
