heat problem Foxconn nta3500
Hello
the nanoPC fan works in a really low setting, the other day I heard that it was working at a faster speed. do you guys know if there is a way to control this fan or change the thresholds so the APU runs cooler. the day that the fan was working I didn't change anything.
this is the idle output of the nanopc
k10temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1: +63.0°C (high = +70.0°C)
(crit = +100.0°C, hyst = +97.0°C)
radeon-pci-0008
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1: +63.0°C
thanks a lot for your help

yes, using tools from lm_sensors package

Re: heat problem Foxconn nta3500
thanks for you response, I had previously installed the lm_sensors package.
the output from the sensors-detect is the following:
Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'... Yes
Found `ITE IT8518E Super IO'
(no support yet)
so currently there is no way to monitor/control the fan with the lm_sensors. do you have any more suggestions?

Re: heat problem Foxconn nta3500
I've heard somebody can control fan via Speedfan, the well known winz application under wine

Re: heat problem Foxconn nta3500
I have no more ideas.....
if you are not a developer or similar, my suggestion is to wait for new software release.
e.g. forthcoming kernels will have better AMD support both in CPU and GPU
