Re: [SOLVED] Thinkfan doesn't run at startup

cat /etc/systemd/system/thinkfan.service.d/override.conf

The service seems to depend on a couple of more files - you could brute-force this by not depending on a file but augmenting

[Service]
ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 30

Which will just delay the start by 30 seconds.

wow Seth, you perform miracles, now works, don't know what's the problem but now after rebooted my pc its running. A big thank you!!!

I have one more issue/the last one with my wifi, can I post it here if you wanna help me or make another post?

Re: [SOLVED] Thinkfan doesn't run at startup

There's no magic involved.
The service depends on devices that show up late, so we make it wait a bit before it starts - and hope that the devices are in place.

Thanks.
