Hello,
recently my laptop's second fan (gpu fan) doesn't work correctly. At this time my laptop is idle and all sensors shows a low temperature

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+But the second fan runs a second and then stops for a second, and continues the circle. So it causes lots of noise, and is even more annoying than constant running.
I have tried using fancontrol, nbfc, asus-nb-wmi, asus_fan. Among them fancontrol and asus-nb-wmi only have control over my first fan (cpu fan), while nbfc seems to make no difference and asus_fan cannot insert its kernel module at all (modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'asus_fan': No such device)(may be because my laptop is relatively new).
Is there anyway to gain control over the second fan?
--------------------------
This issue has gone after some days. I did nothing. It can't be reproduced.
