Hi,
I've got problem with ThinkPad E530 3259-AAG. The fan speed is constant and doesn't reflect temperature of CPU. Temperature is usually 70°C - 105°C.
Any tool shows 0 RPM, but fan is actually running.
Hardware is OK - fan speed is correctly changing during start-up and depends on temperature. It goes wrong when kernel is loaded.

I suppose there is no relation with my problem, because I've got ThinkPad where is used thinkpad_acpi module to control fan speed. I believe there is problem with this module (it probably cannot read and control fan speed on my model).

i have a thinkpad e531 and i have not managed to control the fan or get output from sensors. I think my model and possibly yours are not supported.
Check here http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_control_fan_speed
I have tried most of the things mentioned on that wiki to control the fan speed, without any success

Dear OP,
did you have any updates (I know it's been few years, hopefully you're still around and will see this) regarding this issue?
I have a Thinkpad E550 Laptop with :

One thing I was doing had the fan (sound perceived) for less than second and it was following the steps in the overview (lm_sensors) of that wiki page, specifically "increasing fan_div" -> i created the (/etc/sensors.d/fan-speed-control.conf) file with the once:
chip "coretemp-isa-*"
set fan1_div 4and second with:
chip "radeon-pci-*"
set fan1_div 4Both gave back errors after running $sensors -s

Error: File /etc/sensors.d/fan-speed-control.conf, line 2: Unknown feature name
